    My mates Fat bob has had 2 air filters due to the nut breaking out of the centre, must be a common weak point, he put a pro heavy breather on it.

    Thanks I have replaced exhaust nuts with locking nuts made for exhausts from bolt barn and they appear to be working and will get engine mounts checked
