Vforce3 - Possible knock-off ?

Hey guys

Is this a possible knock-off? Purchased from a private seller on Trademe (NZ equiv of eBay)

1) Supplied bolts have a larger hex size, too long, and come with nuts!
2) Gasket was tight on corners, therefore didn't sit nice and flat.
3) insert is raised about 0.5mm

Your thoughts? Install and send it?

Cheers

That's strange. Call Moto Tassanari and find out.

Those are openly sold on temu for around $25. Question is do they work?

Dunno, never tried it. Returned it to the seller and got a refund.
