This has been covered many, many times. In all honesty, use the search and you will come up with more information than you care to know.
That being said, your best bet is going to be either a helicoil or a timesert.

thanks for your help. i was actually looking for a specific application to someone who had this problem with the same bike and bolt so that i was as exact as possible. i had already searched and did not find someone who had done this with the same bike as i did. and where would i go about getting a timesert. thanks
