Default Service Bulletin M1546 jiffy stand screws

I don't have a PA or a revolution max engined bike but I saw this just now. I see it was published last November but I cannot find any posts relating to it.

M1546 - M1546 Harley-Davidson Technical Service Bulletin (tsbsearch.com)

A lot of HD service bulletins - Harley-Davidson TSBs (Technical Service Bulletins) (tsbsearch.com)

I was proactive on my 23. Removed bolts, added lock-tite and torqued to revised specs. Just like everything else on these bikes, problems and solutions are all known. Why wait for it to fail??

I checked mine today just to see, it has some sort of white thread locker on the top bolt that I first pulled out. I imagine all other bolts probably have TL on them as well. I checked the other two and they were solid. So I left well enough alone; and of course I reapplied blue TL to the top one I pulled out.

That is probably a bolt with lock patch. Maybe a look at the latest parts list will confirm that.
