I looked all over the shop manual and TG suppliment (2014 TG) under wheels, disks, rotors, brakes and could not find the front rotor bolt torque value anywhere.
Does anyone know what it is? I assume you need blue Loctite?
I tried getting that H-D yellow thread locker crap off but couldn't get it all off. Can I just put the Loctite over that stuff.
The torque is listed in the torque tables, look at chapter 2.1 Fastener torque values. It also says always use new screws (most likely for the threadlocker that comes on the screw).
Don`t use loctite over an old threadlocker.

Thanks a lot. Don't know how I missed that page. Didn't know I can't reuse those screws. I bet they are going to cost a fortune. LOL
Now the question is do I have to remove the old thread locker from the holes??
I wish I never removed them in the first place. I did it so it would be a lot easier to clean the wheels.
Thanks again
