bandit 1200 head
Hi
I never claimed to be much of a handyman with bikes and this proved me right.
tried to change header exhaust gaskets and when re-torquing the header bolts I stripped a thread and also broke the ally bit the thread sits within (can't hellicoil).
Any ideas appart from stripping the head off and replacing with a new one (more than cost of the bike).
I like the bike, it's a good Europe tourer as long as you keep a thermos full of fuel for emergencies. I'm gutted and want to know if something can cure my bike's ailments. Oh and my wallet
