That really sucks. good that you made it to your house without hoofing it. If they would refund your money or not i would send them bars back with a nasty gram.

Its amazing that some companies for instance will "stretch" their metal extrusions which results in a varying wall thickness but leaves just a hair more metal in the pot for the next push which has surprising effects on the money to be made. Come to think about it, last batch I saw like that WAS imported. Not trying to imply that you are a victim of the "slimming" effect, but it would be interesting to know what kinda MEAT they left there for you to hang your life on." Even though my front wheel says Indonesia, and my rear says Japan - Im going to buy American bars. Which brings me to my next point - WTF is up with all these international stamps all over our Harleys??? Maybe im just "ignant" - in a Michael Jackson voice ( haha hopefully someone will get that ) Sorry for simi jackin your thread man.
no worries it turns out to be a sodered weld not a real weld

Dude that is down right dangerous. Good thing you made it home safe. Gotta love the cop giving you a hard time despite the obvious issue you were having.
