What size helecoil? I flippen stripped mine after I hit a bump and flopped my beach bars down low enough that I looked like I was riding a crotch rocket. Thank god I was not in traffic. The trike rocked hard to the right then crossed 3 lanes. I stopped after running off the road and jumped a bar ditch. This crap never happened on my honda LOL
