Motorcycles always seem to take abuse, and usually it is the engine crankcase that takes the brunt. In this video, I am working on a Honda CT70 that the bottom thread for the side cover has been busted off. It was caused by the drive chain jumping off and bunching up behind the side cover. This broke the side cover and broke the ear with the threads off. Watch how I repaired missing threads.

It is common on motorcycles for the threads to be stripped out. In that situation, repairing the threads with a “Helicoil Thread repair kit is common. But if the aluminum has been busted away, a thread repair kit will not help.
You will see in this video, how I used an aluminum threaded rivet and put it in the place of the missing threads. I used a MIG Welder to spot the rivet in place, but I explain that you can use an epoxy like J.B. Weld instead. If the hole that you need to fix isn’t required to hold a lot of stress, epoxies will work just fine.
