Lost1888 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I agree. I'll be taking my bike to Hoblicks garage this weekend to have him help me put them on using his torque wrench and sockets.Would it also be a good idea to put a little lock-tight on the threads of the bolts when installing them? Or just torque 'em up as spec'd.I used Blue loctite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Most of the bikes are having the bolts run into an aluminum case part of the motor. I don't think using Blue Loctite is a good idea, but check your owner's manual. GSXRs are equipped with pinch bolts on the frames to hold the frame bolts in place. They also have locking nuts to secure the other mounting bolts.CHECK with your owner's manual. The last thing you want to do is damage the threads in the motor or the bolt itself...Just check - not saying you shouldn't use it, but if it is not required to do so, I wouldn't...

SAMBUSA Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I dont agree with the use of Loctite. Not for your frame sliders anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmako777 Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 lemme say that stripping an engine mount bolt is not a great thing, but it isnt the end of the world either. i cross threaded my engine mount bolt and had to heli coil it. but i agree to always use a torque wrench! just fyi, engine mount bolts on a gix are 39 lbs (at least on the 06-07's) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never worked on my bike or any other bike before other than installing a my taillight modulator, I simply had questions regarding the tools, never said I couldn't do the work.
