Hey Russ, glad you're here. I was wondering about grilling options. There are grills that we can use there, then?

Bad day with bike maintenece! Now I need a new inner primary. Went to drain the primary to service it with some new oil and the Heli-coil came out. Thought I could thread in a new one. Nope. 1/2-20 is a major bitch to thread in. Said eff it and tapped it out for a pipe plug. Should hold for the trip but need to order a Time-Sert or a new primary. Fun.

And yes it has enough clearance to clear on a corner. Just looks like crap. Im thinking the plug was my leak all along and not my mainshaft seal.
