Does anyone have experience with these or similar? www.probolt-usa.com/aluminum-engine-kit-yamaha-mt-10/Purely for aesthetic purposes, just wondering about the aluminum vs SS that's already on the bike. Granted the site says not to use these in stress areas and only makes them for the spots that are supposedly safe. Lightech makes them as well, just cost twice as much for same aluminum. Thanks!

I have them. I have not had any issues with them so far but I definitely feel these are much less stronger bolts and would be a lot easier to strip out, at least compared to OEM. But so far they've been fine and have not lost their color. They definitely make the bike pop a little bit more.
However, I did not replace any of the engine bolts. The only ones I replaced were fairing bolts, windscreen, etc. I would not have the confidence in them to do all the engine covers. They might be fine, but not for me.

I had a full set of the red Pro-Bolts on my TLR back in 2005 (engine and fairings) and they all turned pink. Would not recommend. The black will probably turn purple like other cheap anodizing and the blue will turn a light aqua. Unless of course they changed their anodizing setup
