On the Honda after you take the nuts louse the first time, they will never stay tight again. You will have to use some kind of tape over the nuts to keep them tight. Locite tight will not work by itself. aand, after you do the stock nuts on and off a few times the nut will jump on the collar. If you take a dial calipor and measure the size of the male portion. You will find the top of the threads at the end is a different size than in the middle. A quick fix is to turn the collar around and use the other side for a few times, before they wear down. The Dura Blue set-up will wear down just like the stock does. The RAD system will work very good. The reason that the anti-fad works so well is because of the corse thread being very deep. But the system is very costly(about $250). We have tried all of the different systems in over 10 years of racing and if you have the money, buy the anti-fad. If not, get the RAD system for about $50.
