hi

im wondering if i should put some sort of loc-tite on the timing plate bolts that go in the side casing? i mean, since i wont be touching that part of my bike after its assembled for a long time, would it help? im afraid the bolts might come loose down the road. kinda paranoid since its electrical parts its holding.

 

you guys ever do that? thx

Medium strength, "blue" Loc-tite is the way to go on those. :thumbsup:

Yeah, you don't need the red that has to be taken off with high heat.............

 

The blue would be a good idea though............. :thumbsup:

there is a light duty green loc-tite that I would use instead of blue. sometimes blue can work like red especially in aluminum, but thats me.it would be easier to remove.

You have to be careful when selecting your loc-tite as green may also be sleeve and bearing lock, which is nastier than red loc-tite. :thumbsup:

he's right, some of the stuff that I used at my shop(lock-tite brand) could glue some stuff together that otherwise couldn't be glued. I don't know if it is availible to the general public but defenitly read the label.
