Hi, I just put some lightning sliders on my bike and need the torque specs for the engine mount bolts and pinch bolt...also what is the procedure ...(tighten rs first, then pinch then ls etc.)

thanks
 
Well in case anyone else wants to know:

40lbs on each engine bolt, use blue loc-tite.
25lbs on the pinch bolt, use blue loc-tite.

Tighten down the right side first.

HMMMMMM, I never loosend the pinch bolt, was I supposed to? My bolt just slides right through the frame part then threads into the block. I seen the pinch bolt, but wasn't exactly sure it's purpose.

Yes. You probably got a false torque reading if you didn't loosen the pinch bolt and leave it loose until the engine bolt was tightened properly.

Thanks for the info, seeings how I don't have my powdercoat stuff back yet the plastic isn't back on the bike, so this can/will be corrected.

Great board, great info.:;):
