Cylinder head studs 47.05.09

[Jamie64]

Hi all

I had a base gasket leak after fitting a second hand head on my 3 1/2 so rechecked the tensions after the first short ride.
The tensions were all good so i started to remove the head so i could lift the barrel and seal it (no i did not reseal when i had it apart )
and the nut just fell off one of the studs.

1. is this common ?
2. where can i get a new set ? (MDINA out of stock)

Bike is a 1974 3 1/2 Sport.

I replied to your facebook post as well but now realise you're in Oz. I have spare used studs but imagine the postage from UK would make it more attractive to have a set of studs made locally to you. If that doesn't work out and no-one nearer can supply then let me know.
