Stripped the sump drain thread!!!!!

Hi guys. First post. Bought myself a second hand 2004 Busa and have just done a 4000k trip. Thought I would change the oil, and yep, you guessed, stripped the thread. So I google helicoil, and what do I find, the Hayabusa club with some guy from Townsville, where i live, had the same problem last year! Must be the heat!
What I would like to know if anyone has had the helicoil repair done successfully and if I will need to take the pan of the bike which I am loathe to do since it looks I will have to take off the exhaust, cooling fan and a few other bits and pieces.
Was hoping to be able to either get a mobile mechanic or transport bike into a bikeshop where they might do it.
Any ideas?
