Author Message   Earwig Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 07:29 pm:        While cleaning my bike I noticed one of the fork bolts are missing (Upper fork clamp pinch fastener?) is missing. I am attaching a pic. Does anyone know what the part number for this is? They Harley dealer blew me off but if I knew exactly what to ask for my life would be a lot easier. Also, is the torque spec on it 20-22 ft-lbs? Thank you.   Earwig Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 07:33 pm:        Here is the picture, sorry.   Earwig Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 07:36 pm:        Wait, I just looked closer and I don't think that bolt is necessary, right? lol   Dtaylor Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 07:55 pm:        Only if you had an XB12X beak on there.   Earwig Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 08:11 pm:        lol thanks. don't I feel stupid   Reepicheep Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 09:37 pm:        Don't! I noticed that same thing drooling over a 9s in the dealer before I bought my 9sx. It was a clue that the Uly was coming. The beak mount was there before the Uly was announced.   Earwig Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 10:09 pm:        Haha cool, glad I wasn't alone!   Court Posted on Friday, April 11, 2014 - 05:31 am:        >>>It was a clue that the Uly was coming. It's not like i didn't tell you 8 months in advance. :-) Hahahaha   Teeps Posted on Friday, April 11, 2014 - 12:15 pm:        Court Posted on Friday, April 11, 2014 >>>It was a clue that the Uly was coming.

So your advanced insight was moot for me.   Arcticktm Posted on Tuesday, April 15, 2014 - 01:23 pm:        and if you did put a screw in there, I sure would not use 20-22 ft-lbs torque. I'm guessing you got that from the SM and it is for the actual fork clamp pinch bolts. Way too much for such small threads in Aluminum. More like single digit ft-lbs, or until "snug" with some blue threadlock. (Message edited by arcticktm on April 15, 2014)
