F4i motor mounts stripped

[C-Ware]

\r\n \r\n no way in hell it should take u 5 hours to drop a motor even alone maybe 2 hours at most to be all said an done... hell even a bike thats all stock with all the oem plastics and shit should take u maybe an hour or 2 alone.\r\n

\r\n \r\n i just realized i had this problem when installing my tygershark cage do i need to drop the motor to helicoil it?\r\n

\r\n \r\n i got alittle longer bolt no problems easy fix and back on the bike quick..... not there is anything with droping the motor and repairing the theards but there is enough theards behind it to use a longer bolt if it is on the right side\r\n

\r\n \r\n +1, does the motor need to be dropped? Can I get any specifics on sizing or anything? Helicoil noob here\r\n

I was putting my cage back on my bike the other night after going FF and when I went to final tighten the right side motor mount bolt it never got tight. I pulled the cage back off and when I took the bolt out there were some of the threads on the bolt. I know what I should do; drill out the hole and thread it for a larger bolt, but is there anything else I can do? One thing I thought of is just getting a longer bolt and pray for good threading down into the motor. 01 F4i with a Sick Innovation full cage. Cage has never been pancaked, all original Sick Innovation mounting hardware that is still in good condition.

Any help is appreciated
