ok, so I am putting my bike back together from a cut short teardown to clean/repair/maintain it from when I bought it from Eric. I rode it maybe 2 miles since I got it from eric then tore it down.

Upon my hasty reassembly, I have managed to strip out one float bowl screw on two of my carbs and stripped out one exhaust bolt thread on the left side exhaust. I am going to put a little gas in to see if I have any leaks but even if I dont have any from the float bowles, How do I repair the 2 stripped screws?

Also, how do I repair the stripped exhaust bolt hole?

thanks

Sam

Here is a link to the thread where I repaired two of the exhaust bolt holes on my 550.

I still have the time sert kit with some inserts left over if you want to use it.
