Rear Rotor --- Bolts

[francoblay1]

Guys,

I´ve been riding hard for the last two days and now I was just cleaning the Beast a bit when I did notice the rear rotor bolts loose and one is missing

1. what torque should I apply to these bolts?
2. Red or Blue locktite?

Thank you!

Rear pulley and hub bolts, RED loctite @ 60ft lbs.
Brake rotor bolts, RED @ 22-25 ft lbs. (Using heat to remove once installed)

Glad you caught that Franco. Just another reason to wipe the dog down after each ride.....check for loose bolts. I do this even on long trips. I get up early the next day and wipe her down and check oil and bolts. The dog runs better when its clean anyway

Yeees!

These bolts aren't going anywhere in a hurry now! :up:

Were you able to get 60ft/lbs torque on them with a ball driver on that angle?

Nope!!!! but maybe even a bit more though.... I covered the bolts on Red Loctite and used a spanner to apply force to the Allen key... they are now VERY tight, trust me!
