Cheapskatery, I guess!
@bright I've probably had close to that weight on my Long Harry including me. It makes the bike feel a bit noodly and it's definitely a bit sketchy setting off with that much weight on board! Much more than that and you'd really struggle to get the thing moving without toppling over.
Job jobbed. This is my steering joint. The bearings inside the joint in the middle were just running on this bolt. Not the best fit to start with and the threads are worn so it was properly wobbling about. Replaced it with a bolt with a long smooth shoulder as the axle. Now has no play. Happy days!
