                no sir, that's aluminum. You could create weak spots in your frame by doing that. I've always just snugged them up as close to how the original engine mounts felt. which is not very tight, but I go a little tighter.

                I'd like to know. I'm gonna fish around and see if I can find that. I never had any issues before though. Plus think about how many times, and how hard stunt bikes slam the frame. But they do ultimately crack after so much. If they had their sliders or cages way over tightened, it would probably crack fast though.

                Proper installation says to torque to spec and check them ever so often. Probably because spec isn't that tight. But like I said, I've just tightened them down pretty snug before, and they rode out the duration just fine.

                  Vortex. Do they make another brand?

                      right on man. I'm just partial to Vortex products. There's allot of great gear out there though.
