This is an odd one. Maybe one of you have encountered it, and figured out an easy next step.
I bought a Giv E52 case with the E331 mounting plate. It installed just fine on my Maj, so I bought one for my wife's. Step one, you take off a small piece of cowling. Step two, you fasten the metal mounting plate using four bolts into pre-threaded holes on the Maj. Except, one of the pre-threaded holes, the rear-most one on the left, isn't threaded straight. I can screw the bolt in about a quarter-inch, then it hangs up. If I force it, I might break the bolt off. I tried some WD40, but that doesn't help. And I don't want to mount it with just three out of the four bolts. So I am stumped. This happened about an hour ago. I will call the dealer in the morning, but in the meantime does anyone have any better ideas?
Best, Dave
