The Stig Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 oooooooo if you have the tools nothing. If not about 30 quid i'd say, cheap dril and drill bits will come to about £20 then a helicoil set to bring it back down to M5 which is abotu another £10 Use the search next time buddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stig Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 I wouldn't advise riding it with a mount stripped as it is in a seriously weak condition, if your rip it out it is then a big job to fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_pimp Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Although if you have it Helicoiled the threads will be stronger than they were standard.Its not a hard job. If you have the confidence do it yourself, If not go through your yellow pages and find a local Engineers.This is what I did, Just walked over and spoke to an Engineer (not slaeman or receptionist) and he helicoiled my bike for the price of a beer.

ti-mig-guy Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 I've got a stripped 4 bolt mount, didn't fix it. I was able to fit a nut under the mount and it works fine for me. Probably not the most kosher fix, but it was free to me. The mount prevents the nut from spinning, so it was a piece of cake, took about a minute to fix.
