torque specs for primary cover
Hi everyone, Can anyone tell me what the torque specs are for the primary cover. The book I have does not say anything about it. Thank you for the help.

Re: torque specs for primary cover
What kind of book are you using that it doesn't have the TQ for this?
EDIT: I removed my reply here because the TQ specs as I said vary from bike to bike as well as the procedure for torquing them and I don't want to give you bad info.

Re: torque specs for primary cover
That's the reason I asked about threadlocker. Recently had 2 seized bolts on my primary. Blue Loctite should work to keep everything in place and allow removal without having seized bolts.
Any reason not to use a threadlocker on these bolt threads?
