The R&Gs always come with a replacement bolt mate, that's how they work. And they do work, or at least, mine meant that the only damage to the bike when I binned it at 60 was a broken front brake lever, ground down rear lever, and bent rear subframe (passenger footpeg bent back). Would have just been the subframe and rear brake if it had stayed out of the gravel... The bung was ground down about half way

Machine Mart sell a moderately accurate large value torque wrench for £15, mine has served me well...

Oh ay, I'll just take this quick opportunity to diss Motrax's DHB's again, if they're all the same as mine then you'd be better tying a balloon to the side of your bike, it'll give you as much protection as the RHS bung...
