    hey all. I have a generic xor 50 and it's been a headache since I've had it. Now though there's one thing stopping me riding it. The crankcase cylinder stud threads have stripped. I've ordered a heli coil kit coming Tuesday is that going to fix my issue I have?

    I appreciate any help on this and thanks in advance.

    P.S I know it's not the best bike but I've spent a good few hours sorting it out now I've grown to like it even though it's a pain in the bum.

    Yes it wiil, don't over tighten when rebuilding, 10-12 ft-lb torque will be more than enough.

    Thanks for the fast reply. I'll be fitting a 70 bore to it at the same time is it worth me doing all 4 studs while I have the top end off?
