I took off the dealer-installed 2-point docking hardware for a cleaner look. When I went to put it back on, one of the bolts would only go on a few turns before it stopped. It feels like its being cross-threaded. I told the dealer this and he suggested I use a "tap" to fix it.
First off, what is a "tap" and why should I have to do this on a 2-week-old bike?! That bolt goes directly into the frame. How hard/easy is this to do?
Another thought: I bought the 4-point kit also in preparation for my detachable TourPak that is on order. This bolt would be the middle bolt on the right side. You think I could get by with just 2 bolts on that side?
