I have a stripped head bolt on my R1100 S. Waiting for new voltage regulators for my R65 LS and R100 RS. I'm hoping that's the charging problem with my R65.

@wobbly , 

Thanks for the reply, wasn't sure anyone makes it down to this section of the Internet.  Sourcing helicoils is the easy part. They're readily available.  The issue is finding a stud jig for drilling the case to accept the helicoils.  The cycle tools guy in Ks doesn't offer them anymore, northwoods likewise.  Don't feel like dropping $350 or so on a one use tool either, but it may be the only way.

No other luck with the tool library?
