Thanks all for the advice. Brought it to a local ducati specialist and he is OK with the heli-coil approach.
Few things regarding the torque wrench I was using, for anyone who finds this thread in the future: It was set to 13.5nm (sorry, not 11nm, as I should have followed), which was the lowest the 10-100 ft/lb could go, so that was mistake #1. I hear the extreme ends of a torque wrench aren't as accurate.
Mistake #2, the torque wrench was not stored at its lowest setting. Never knew this was an issue until now.
Mistake #3, not my torque wrench. The clicking mechanism was so soft I didn't even feel it and shot right past it.
I have since ordered a new, more appropriate, torque wrench and plan to do the stator (?) cover side when I get the bike back. Fingers crossed I don't f it up again.
