Critical Fasteners
I went over all of mine per the Service Manual and the only one's I found not be tight was the (horn bracket to cylinder heads bolts). They were quite loose.
Anyway, this is just a heads up for something you might want to look at.
These torque to 35-40ft.lbs. on my StreetGlide

Be sure to check the exhaust flange nuts. You'll need a long extension and 1/2 inch universal (wobbly) socket. Be careful not to over-tighten.
Also check the exhaust clamps at the mufflers.
These nuts seems to loosen up due to the heat. You DO NOT use loctite on these nuts.
On all other nuts and bolts, blue loctite is my friend.
