KTM Paddock Stand Adapters (Orange)

Like every spool on any bike I've owned they screwed right in by hand.

These adapters work great and look good. Torque to the recommended torque value (you have to go to the KTM Manuals page on their website and enter the part number for the instructions).

I knew these were aluminum when I ordered them however I thought they would be a higher quality. As it is I doubt these are anywhere close T6 6061 grade. The right side started to bind up as I was screwing it in (never had another set of spools installed so threads should have been fine) and when I went to pull it out to check if there was a defect the head snapped off. Now I have to break out my extraction kit and hope I can get the remaining portion out of my swingarm.
