Fastener Repost?

[MacBayne]

I truly hope that I am mixing up the indianmotorcycles.net (it's run by the manufacturer... so I don't trust it), forum and here...

Unless it's actually a problem....

I could swear... I REMEMBER a thread that called fastener quality into question...

But are you guys losing 1/4 of your fasteners due to driver stripping?

I've added a tank bag, luggage rack, changed oil, changed ALL brake fluid and swapped coolant for distilled/ Water wetter, with the same tools that I've ALWAYS used on Japanese machines... but 25 % of Indian fasteners seem to fail...

I'm not using Snap-on.... but, seriously...

My dealer stripped some fasteners and replaced them, i then ruined those same replacement fasteners. Replaced with some cheap ones from China and no more problems. I am using snapon tools btw

Every time i put a wrench on this thing it's knees weak palms are sweaty

At least they are soft enough that I won't wear out my drill bits before I extract them...
