I would think that there exists a good possiblity of developing leaks or worse by removing and replacing all of those engine tranny and primary bolts, even if they are done one at a time. But at least you would ensure that your fastners are torqued properly!

Hot Toppers for me. Had em on my last bike and they held up perfectly year after year. I change bolts on things like foot pegs and stuff, but engine primary and tranny get toppers except derby cover which gets a chrome kit.
