heli-coil=better than stock $300 is far too much when it can be fixed for less than 20$ (if i remember right) do what you wish, im just saying, it feels good to do it yourself and learn new skills, it will pay off now, and later down the road when more problems come up. And i disagree with you papa, remember how MOC (i think) changed a few of our members oil, and people crashed? i trust my torque wrench over someones word that they used one. This is a simple task, as long as its tightened to spec, it will not leak. Push your limits as a mechanic, obviusly dont go rebuild your forks at first, or anything like that, but try stuff you havent before, if you fuck up, fix it, or tell us and we will help you
