I have a 2017 yz250f with a stripped oil drain hole. It is the threads in the case and the way they have it near the frame you have to take the motor out to tap it. Any other ideas? Thanks

I would put in the heli coil they are stronger than just the tap

+2 on the time sert. 10x better than a heli coil. It's peace of mind knowing a time sert is in there as opposed to a heli coil. There's a reason why they are more expensive...thats the way I look at it. If it wasn't a crucial bolt going in then I'd say go heli coil all day but it doesn't get much more crucial than an oil drain bolt.
