i have a 2008 nightser 1200N . my rear caliper is stripped out for wear the bolt threads into the caliper . can i tap out the hole or how can fix it to save $180 on a new one !!!!

 

Get a heli-coil kit and repair the threads. Super simple

 

heli-coil kit is simple to install ? do i need to drill out hole so no threads and a smooth hole is left ?? got to remember how to do them kits , different / better than tapping threads ?

 

If you get the kit it comes with everything you will need Except tap handle.

 

Anyone happen to know the thread size on this bolt ?

 

Answered my own question 12x1.25 Thanks for nothing

 

If a 06 rear caliper will fit, I have one you can have for a fair price

 

I just ordered a tap from amazon. If it doesn't work I will let you know

Thanks
