Loctite everything.  I did that on my XB12R and nothing ever came loose.


Ah, so you used the RED Loctite. Should do it.

Any real rider checks those fender mounting bolts regularly...esp on a Harley.

Where do you change the oil on H-D fender mounting bolts?  Do they leak that much?

Don't you guys realize it's a safety feature?  If the ShriekingChickenDangerSensor goes off, the bike lays itself down to protect the rider from inadvertently activating the FrontBrakeOfInstantDeath.  Obviously something dangerous was about to happen.  Duh.

Wayah Road! One of my favorites. An evil, evil road.  firedevil

Can be pretty hairy. Horrible pavement, decreasing radius turns, sand and gravel in the corners. It's so much fun.  Twofinger


Eeesh .... I'm jumping over to 28.
