Been there, done that where it just pulled one bolt out the thread on the crankcase.

Seems crazy when a helicoil would repair the damage for a few quid.

But in my case I put the bike into a dealer and it was a third party insurance job.

So away it went.
Same as my brother. As a still nearly-new machine with very few miles on it, he simply had the dealer who'd sold it to him brand new collect it and waited for it to be fixed on the other party's insurance.

Still, at least the pay-out was decent.
