posted some pics

I was putting the gas tank back and stripped one of the bolts that hold it. It's actually worse than that as I seemes to have stripped the thread on that piece of frame where the bolt goes into. What are my options? If worse comes to worse can the tank be held in place with only one bolt? The good thing is that the thread is not stripped completely, I was able to screw the bolt back but it was going in very hard. Thanks, Yan

OK, I forgot who asked me to post pics of the bike. I think I posted them under "Tim's "06" faster red KLR, Shelton,WA." The dirty pic is to prove it has been off road, because most of my pics are taken with the bike cleaned up.

I did the same thing. I ran a metric tap through to clean up the holes and put new bolts in.
