Cylinder stud

(1/2) > >>

Fraser McGillivray:
Hey guys.....Anyone willing to part with one small 158mm cylinder stud. Had a bit of a misfortune earlier and sheared the last stud clean off. I`m rebuilding a 750 K8.
Regards....Fraser

Hi Fraser, and welcome to the forum. Bit of a bummer that broken stud, has it snapped flush with casing? There’s certainly people on here that have done a lot of these engines so there is a chance you may be lucky. Good luck with the bike and the repair.

Fraser McGillivray:
Cheers Johnny....it sheared roughly 3mm above the flush and on inspection there was a slight flaw in the stem, so it was def` going to shear. I did manage to get the threaded part out with heat, drill and an ease out with no damage to the case threads, so all`s well in that respect but hoping someone will have bits and pieces lying about as i`m struggling to find one anywhere, even CMS Spares in Holland....

Johnny4428:
That’s great you got the piece of stud out with cases intact. Give it a little time see who comes along with assistance. 24 hours or so would be reasonable.

Nurse Julie:
I'll ask Graham later if we have any spares. But, I don't know if the ones we may have, which would be from K0, K1 and K2, are the same as the K8 🤔🤔🤔
