Hi everyone, Can anyone tell me what the torque specs are for the primary cover. The book I have does not say anything about it. Thank you for the help.
 
What kind of book are you using that it doesn't have the TQ for this?

EDIT:
I removed my reply here because the TQ specs as I said vary from bike to bike as well as the procedure for torquing them and I don't want to give you bad info.

That's the reason I asked about threadlocker. Recently had 2 seized bolts on my primary. Blue Loctite should work to keep everything in place and allow removal without having seized bolts.
Any reason not to use a threadlocker on these bolt threads?

I suggest the HD manual from the dealer for your bike. It will give you the best input on various operations over the other brands with better explanations..
