Also http://www.allensfasteners.com/default.asp They also carry electrical terminals etc. Just restocked last week. Damn shipping was $11 but the price is still cheaper than the gas to do 50 mi. round trip to town and MAYBE find everything you need. |

2nd that, I have used belmetric several times for fasteners....quality stuff  If you want to go a bit exotic, ProBolt is fantastic with aluminum, stainless steel and titanium fasteners. Definately expensive, but the quality from ProBolt is off the charts, parts are like little jewels. https://www.probolt-usa.com/ |

Bookmarks saved, thanks guys. Now I don't have to search as much for 'that' fastener. |

A suggestion, put anti seize on all your fasteners especially those going into aluminum. No damn Loctite needed on a Valkyrie unless Honda says so but I haven't seen that yet in my OEM but...  |

The only Loctite I have used on the Valk is on the alternator front nut that holds the drive flange. I had one come loose on me and I thought the valvetrain was coming apart. I put Loctite on it, torqued it to specs, and placed it on the shelf as a known good spare. Hay  Jimmyt |

Don’t the pins for the rear hub damper require thread locker ?

No, and no grease on the pins either, per section 14 of tech manual. |

My Clymer manual says ' Caution, Do not attempt to remove the final driven flange pins and nuts ' and to apply a light coating molybdenum disulfide to the driven flange pins.

clymer has had many mistakes over the yrs for many different vehicles. Factory tech manual should be followed in this case, since its best to have the least amount of movement as possible in the dampers and splines. |

I have an OEM manual for my 2008 Kawasaki Concours C14 that has a mistake in it for valve clearance computation if I am remembering properly. I believe it was corrected for later models. Sometimes you have to do what you think is right.

The 06' VT1100C Clymer manual had at least one miscue and that was the procedure doing rear end refill of the lube thus causing overfill and a mess with rear tire receiving most of it. I've always purchase OEM most the time but I'd say Clymers is 2nd. best in a pinch but w/o a good forum and/or a OEM, how you know what truly right? GO OEM!  |
