Slipon bolts
Got to work today and looked down as I was disrobing from my cold weather gear and saw that my RH slipon was sticking out further than the left.
Sure nuff..............loose as a goose. Both the bolts for the rear bracket and the muffler clamp are loose.
I'm at work and dont have my manual with me. Anyone know the torgue settings for those bolts? I want to torgue before the ride home.

RE: Slipon bolts
I know from experience that you should lean towards the 60 foot pounds as they will come loose quite easily. I went to Harley and the have a new clamp that will not loosen up once it is tightnened. It has a torque block in the center that won't budge. I feel your pain.
Good luck.
