    Greetings folks,

    Has anyone had problems with the heatshields vibrating themselves loose and making all kinds of racket? I've tried several fixes to no avail. The allen screws always loosen up despite using hi-temp loctite, fiber washers, loc washers, ect. This is driving me nuts! :banghead: Annoying little problem on an otherwise fantastic machine! Any fixes or custom mods would be appreciated.

    cheers,

    Mike
