Default What is the proper torque value?

Hey man, My 2009 Dyna Service Manual says to tighten bolts to 21-27 ft-lbs (pg. 2-87). Love the look of your Fat Bob.

Per the BOOK (pg. 2-1)

Front Isolator mounting bolts to front engine bracket 18-22 ft-lbs.

I stand corrected. The above specs is for the mount to engine not frame.
bqualls; has the right specs for the frame torque.

Thank you sir! I really appreciate that. The dealer used NO loctite on anything when they did the 1k service, so now I am going back and re-doing everything myself. Thank you for the compliment too, I have since ditched the mirrors, put on smoked turn signals and done a few other little things to try to subtley improve the look. I love this bike.
