[QUOTE="kirrbby, post: 191665, member: 3972"] I agree with that, really nice bike, part. But I'd be leaning toward the weld repair... Replacing the case is a sure fire and absolute fix. The part IS available, and not expensive. But if you split that engine...you might as well go on with a full rebuild. Might as well...get everything clean...might as well replace those worn shift forks...might as well freshen up the top end...might as well go ahead and rebuild this clutch...might as well go head with a nice engine rebuild for your nice K1H. Or...weld it up and fix the leak. Then just ride that nice bike a while. Then you can pick up a engine case to have on the shelf...for when you're ready to rebuild that engine. Once a nice weld is made, and dressed...you could probably just use the drain plug that's in it. I wouldn't bother with the helicoil. [/QUOTE]
