rotor bolts
#2
You'll get mixed reviews on this. Many don't. I personally do. Admittedly it's OCD and piece of mind for me.
Smarter forum members will discuss metallurgy and my harley dealer says it's their best practice due to bolt stress levels post torquing.
Again, short money and higher mountains for me to climb than debate this one.
Good luck.

I've heard of pulley bolts shearing off, particularly when used with a chrome cover, but I've never heard of a rotor bolt failing. I have re-used them in the past, maybe I've just been lucky.

Rear tire lockup?
I guess I'm lucky, I've never had a rear wheel "lockup" in 45 years of riding Harleys (pan,knuck,shovel and Evo}, or any bike of any brand from Aeromacchi to Zundapp.
I suppose it's possible if a chain broke and jammed into the trans sprocket, but a broken belt wouldn't do it. Never heard of it happening though.
