| Anyone know where to get an oversized oil pan bolt that can rethread the oil tank? Called ride now they didn't have it and they dude said to go to ace hardware. Don't really know about that one.

| ace hardware carries various sizes of plugs, but the re threading part will have to be done with a tap, just be careful when you re tap the threads that you dont get metal filings inside the pan.

Oil tank or oil pan ?
Either way, remove it from the bike, then tap/rethread it.

| you can actually do it without removing the pan if you put grease on the tap and re thread slowly so filings stay on the grease
