He didnt locktite the handlebars.
Vibrations caused the screws to back out. He told me one minute everything was normal then ALL OF A SUDDEN the bars came off and he went over the front.
Hit his head and got some road rash.
Luckily for him his helmet took the impact and he's fine.
I've been going over all the bolts using red loctite- harder to remove than the blue stuff, but stronger.
Just a word of caution to my fellow MB pals!
