okay so i am replacing a cam and just now saw that the book calls for replacing the cam bolt. M12x1.0x60mm shoulder bolt. torque to 30lbft + 80deg. that's a big ass bolt to think it's gonna stretch with that low of a load. loctite and call it good?

I would just replace it. You know the size that you need so just find a Grade 8 equivalent of a metric bolt for it that is the same type.

Shoulder bolts aren't stock items usually, made to order... unless the HD/B dealer has them.

To add... to me +80 implies stretch.
I'd FIND new.

Is it worth trying an Aprilia shop ?

As the Mille engine came from the same factory it's possible that some parts are the same ...
