      I hope not, if anyone owns a 125cc will tell you dealing with Torx bolts is their worst enemy and they tend to replace the entire engine bolt set.
      Look at this , you will do a whole lot better here

      Header Pipe Copper Exhaust Gasket & Full Stainless Stud Nut Kit :: Hyosung [Various Models]

      Remember if its a “Hyosung” the consensus is to try to make every small screw stainless against the harsh weather elements  & less fighting when its maintenance time.

      If its just 1 bolt you need,  do you have a local car shop?  Just walk in with the damage torx bit and ask for this exactly below

      “Hi, this bolt is for my exhaust but its damaged, can i have a stainless steel replacement ?   The bolt must he a “HEX”  head please. NO ALLEN KEY.”

      Or “This above ^ happened, and i need a “stud that is 40mm long” and an “OPEN STAINLESS NUT”  (This will be tricky for them to do!)

      but you get the gist sir 🙂
