Check Harley Clutch Lever Handlebar Clamp Screw Torque
Mike RoenDescription
Always follow the specified service manual procedures when addressing the Harley clutch lever hardware and all fasteners that contain threadlocking agents when fastener replacement is needed. When re-using fasteners with threadlocking agents, thoroughly clean the fastener and threaded hole(s). Always use the factory recommended threadlocking agent for the specific procedure.
Next on the list is the clutch master cylinder clamp screws, and the front brake master cylinder clamp screws. You've got them here and here, of course. Manual says 60 to 80 inch-pounds, so get your inch-pounds torque wrench out. I set mine right in the middle at 70, no big deal. Really what they're looking for here is obviously, if these were the stock handlebars, they'd be a one-inch bar.
They don't want the controls moving around on you. Bsically we're double-checking this guy's work, whoever put these bars on. I'll move on over to the front brake here, snug it up. Everything's as it should be, so we can move on to the next item.
