    Stripped exhaust mount/footpeg mount stud

    Use your exhaust hanger as the flat washer that goes next to the foot peg and don't use the lock washer. You may have enough threads left for the nut to thread onto. Not much side load on nut. Load is on large smooth part.

    MR Toglhot when you say scribe a line under the points heel I assume you mean the piece of fiber that rests on the point cam. Since you cant scribe a line directly under the fiber which side of fiber do you scribe on right or left?
