That was really interesting. I had a look thru their website, they look as though they know what their about.. one of their custom maps was headed "rip your face off power" lol.

Its concerning that some of these slip through factory QC.. torqued to 50% of what they should be !.. jesus.

I thought I would add this link about stretch bolts I came across while were on the subject...

Interesting - I'd be interested in the batch numbers etc.

Stretch bolts are standard across the entire motortrade and are necessary engineering solutions. Being badly fitted isn't right though. I'd question if it was one factory/builder/batch.

Bren can be far from accurate with their comments/findings as per their piece on the 17 bike recently. I'd take anything they say with some scepticism until proven.

I've seen it used in the car tuning world. Its supposed to work by increasing the surface area, of water, at the molecular level. Now I don't know about you, but if my cooling system needs help, that isn't going to be enough...I'd fix the actual issue.

Don't think there is a batch, seems to be random
