Go to a NAPA autoparts ..... they sell well-nuts, dont use cork !

I just had the same thing happen on my turbo. (after 9600 miles)

The stock well nuts work fine.

I think you're talking about the bigger of the two sizes of wellnuts used on a 14 right? If you can get them at NAPA great. I have trouble finding them locally or even finding people who know what a wellnut is.

My advice is to buy a bunch and always have extras, especially if you're heavy handed like me. I have a tendency to overtighten everything. If you ever need the smaller size wellnut, go to a Honda dealer. The small ones are the only size they use on CBR models and they usually have plenty in stock.
