Hi Guys,
I cannot convey how aggrivated I am at this time. I just snapped my third rear mounting stud in about 2 weeks. The first one I can understand as I used to stock studs, but the second two I used upgrade bolts which I ordered from Sickbikeparts and they still snapped! Can anyone explain to me why this keeps happening? The motor is mounting correctly and is extremely sturdy except the studs keep snapping after I get about 20 miles on them, and I am not exceeding 28mph even.
Is my best option just to drill the stud holes bigger and use a larger bolt?
Edit: the bolt keeps snapping right at the motor and all three times it has been the bolt on the opposite side of the motor chain.
