...or, once the hub strips, you can buy a Helicoil 5546-10 M10 x 1.5 Metric Coarse Thread Repair Kit (~$30), do the repair yourself and continue using that nice 10MM bolt that's already been drilled for the spinner bolt! Don't forget...you'll also need a 13/32" drill to prepare the hole for the Helicoil. By doing it yourself, you'll get the satisfaction of playing "machinist." Isn't this hobby a kick.

BTW...I have done a couple of the G-62's that were modified with CH electronic ignitions (extended hub) by installing 3/8-24 Helicoils (P/N: 5528-6) - stacked 2 in the hole and cut off the excess. This one takes a 25/64" drill bit.
