klr650 valves cover
i have to admit that i messed up . After tinkering with a valves job,which I got finally right, crossing the 37K barrier,the Ol' Mule ( A19-2005) runs like a new clock BUT ,when I put the valves cover back on ,and looked at the KLR "Bible" (Clymer's manual) I went over board with the torque specs . Now i have the right exhaust bolt stripped and leaking oil ,I thought it would be ok at first, but one would be surprised to see how much oil comes out and burns on the exhaust pipe.. Women don't like a leaky valves cover ,I found out !! Jokes apart , what do I need to do ? I thought about JBWeld ,fill ,drill, tap . Thanks for the feed back .

I'm having a brain fart, and can't think of the real name for them. They are also stronger than the original threads, so you don't have issues with overtightening and stripping threads in the future.
