Guzziesti,
I have to beg, borrow, or buy a 22X1.25mm tap. It is needed to chase the
threads in the crank pin plug hole on a '67 V700. The factory plug was
seized (after 38 years-not surprising), I had to drill it out. I started
turning in the new plug, it got about 1/2 way, started to stiffen up, I gave
it a little more torque, and...well you know the rest of the sad story. I
now have aluminum galled up in the steel threads. Bummer. So anyone know
where I can lay hands on this metric beast?
Thanks,
