If you mean the ones that fastenerguy sells, I get one for every trike I own. I don't use the shock or engine mount bolts though. For those I stick with OEM for strength. For everything else though, those kits are awesome. I need to get one for my 350x soon. Already have them for the R, 200x and Z.

I also have a kit from fastenerguy. Great kit. Like Dammit said, don't use the rear suspension bolts. I have been running the engine mount bolts with no issues though.

I plan on using one of his kits on my project KXF326. Instead of using commonly available hardware for the suspension, I have access to military grade titanium bolts. :naughty: :drool: Working in the powertrain shop has its benefits.

Technically, I guess I could, but would you really like to pay Uncle Sam's prices? :lol: One kit would probably be $7-8000! It's kinda hard to find the right size bolts anyways because most are pretty big. I have to be very patient to get the smaller stuff.

I have a kit ready to go with my Z, you guys are saying I shouldn't use the shock bolts? Has anyone ever broken one from one of his kits?

i run all of the bolts in the kits, his kits are the good stuff, not the hardware store stuff. i beat the everloving hell out of my trike and i havent broke any of his bolts. i use stainless swingarm bolts too and they are the *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited* and i have twisted my swingarm with them without the breaking.
