"She" bolts
2007 883
Getting ready to reassemble it
I get the torque procedure. And LIGHTLY oiling the She Bolts.
Do you also put a tidge of oil where the bolt heads contact the heads?

That's what Hammer Performance recommends, and I did that on my recent 1250 upgrade. I also bought new head bolts, but that's not required. Mine were just severely rusted from 30 years beach life.

Lubing the underside of the head of the bolt gives a truer torque reading, so they say.
