The following tables list the tightening torque for the major fasteners requiring use of a non-permanent locking agent or silicone sealant etc.
Letters used in the “Remarks” column mean: AL: Tighten the two clamp bolts alternately two times to ensure even tightening torque.
G: Apply grease.
L: Apply a non-permanent locking agent.
Lh: Left-hand Threads
MO: Apply molybdenum disulfide oil solution.
(mixture of the engine oil and molybdenum disulfide grease in a weight ratio 10:1)
R: Replacement Parts
S: Follow the specified tightening sequence.
Si: Apply silicone grease (ex. PBC grease).
SS: Apply silicone sealant.
The table below, relating tightening torque to thread diameter, lists the basic torque for the bolts and nuts. Use this table for only the bolts and nuts which do not require a specific torque value. All of the values are for use with dry solvent-cleaned threads.

Additional Considerations for High Speed Operation
Brakes: The importance of the brakes, especially during high speed
operation,
cannot be overemphasized. Check to see that they are correctly adjusted and
functioning
properly.
Steering: Looseness in the steering can cause loss of control. Check to see that
the handlebar turns freely but ha ...
