"Your failed, resleeved M/C's were done by who?"
Both were from a well-known supplier of sleeved MCs for Norton Commandos. He was very apologetic about the first failure - which occurred overnight with the bike sitting the garage. He sent a replacement and a few months later it failed on the road, worked fine at one stop light and failed completely - lever to the bar - when I attempted to stop at the next light. When I advised him he was "...shocked that such a thing happened" "Yeah, me too!" was my response. As the old saying goes, fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me!
I have no idea re the 'construction' of the MC - whether it was threaded or not.
