You really should do those parts up to the specified torque. Too loose and things could....well, it wont be good

Mmm! Kev! Not sure I'd trust your arm with a built in torque wrench on bolts as critical as those! My opinion only though

Refitted the stock rearsets. The Harris ones are a bit hard on my old legs.
Think I will chuck the BT16s back on for a fun blast on the weekend. Looking dry for a change.
