Has anyone had an issue with the one that's behind the foot peg on the brake side. The one I took out was stripped out. I waited over a week for a new and and when I tried to install it it stripped out on me. Seems like it's made out of cheap metal

Well, if there's a knock on Triumphs it's the bolts and screws. Apparently they are made of mush.


It's not speeding till you get pulled over.

Not that bolt but one of Wendys timing cover bolts was cross threaded from the factory and I tried to work it out but after about 1/2 way it finally snapped off. I left the broken piece sticking out of the inner case, it is at the very bottom and can't be seen. I did not use a gasket on it and it hasn't leaked.

Has anyone found a replacement for that bolt? I've been to two different places and they claim they can't get anything like it
