Crossbone Riser Torque
Can anyone with a service manual for a 2008 Crossbones tell me the torque for the riser bolts? I have one ordered, (service manual, not in yet) but am in the middle of a handle bar swap, (going to 16" Wild One Chubby's) and have gotten to the point I'm putting everything back back together and need to know the torque value for the riser bolts. Also, I couldn't find a set of Poly Bushings for a springer, (wtf) everyone just has the factory rubber bushings. Took a set and am cutting them down to the same size as the rubber bumpers the MOCO put in. (Improvise, Adapt, Overcome). I'll post a narrative of this project when I get it done.

Just did this install, tq is 12-15 ft lbs on the riser caps. The riser bolts them selves are 38 ft lbs. I also found a solid riser mount kit through jp cycles that works great. dont overtighten your risers they strip super easy, dont ask me how i know. Only other spec you should need is for the transmission cover which is 84 in lbs or 7 ft lbs.

dated 3/18/2008 service update. torque value 15-18 ft-lbs. handlebar clamp screw. my handle bars became loose and fell down. tried to tighten but knurl became stripped, factory advisory to dealers. seems they weren't torqued correctly at factory. dealer replaced risers and handlebars under warrantee. 2008 crossbones.
