can i ask why you and your girlfriend were on the bike while it was on the stand or was it some kind of kinky garage thing that you'd rather keep quiet.

if u have ur bike on the stand and u jump on it and then ur gf jumps on the back, i dont think the mild steel/4.3 grade will be tough enough.
for a few cents more u wouldnt risk it.
get 8.8, only use the best

Remeber that the thing this bolt screws into is only aluminium and has a small TIG weld to the swinger. You'd think that would break off before the bolt.

Ended up getting a proper set from Singleton Motorcycles (had a set in stock) for $20. Seemed like a decent deal.
They never fail to have bargains on stock that they just wouldnt sell many of. I think they purchase and never sell something for a year or two then give it away.
The last thing I got was a an AGV helmet that I use for pillions, brand spankers, for $60.
Keep em in mind if you live/ride near there and cant seem to get a decent price in city stores.
