  5. Hi all i got a xvs 125 about 2 weeks ago, 2001 12 thousand mile on it in good nick. So im doin about 100-110 kph and it starts to drop power so i check on line and ask few bike owners they say carb or electrical so i get tank and all off carb and rubber y leg thingy ( which has few cracks ) then i decid il service it while im at it so drain oil pull out filter no bother like, then go to take out plugs (engines cold and iv gave a squirk of wd40) i get socket on it and f@#k its tight get about 2 full turns then pop plug snaps ( words were invented at this point ) so i start thinking wat am i goin do so off i take the head get a easy out into whats left of the plug and get it out of coarse threads are completely gone like. So only thing to do is use a helli coil which is in now. My questions are shud i do other cylinder ? And how to i re-aline the cam chain? And what cause first problem? O forgot to say the last person to have bike was a idiot he put a ngk/cr6hsa plug in her which is m10-1.25 not rthe standard plug which is ngk/ cr7hsa which is m10-1
