For anyone with the low Termi it's worth checking the heat shield fasteners, as just spotted I've lost one. Knowing my dealer it'll have to come from Italy and take weeks!

thanks for the reminder.

The little feckers escaped!!

Do you still have the dB killer in?

 

[Derek]

I must remember to check mine. The ones from the Termi on my Multi ran off!

Loctite perhaps?

This goes onto every bolt I've removed from the bike so far.

Glad to see someone knows the trick, with all that vibrating going on over time its bound to loosen the torque on some screws, maybe even to a concerning extent.

I have never trusted blue, but red supposedly is 'permanent' (I've never had red loctite work so well it broke a bolt.)

I always have used the red stuff in the past when working on cars (brake caliper bolts or whatever.)

The blue stuff is so runny it hardly seems like it's going to do anything when it dries, but it's gotta be better than nothing.

Good to know that.

That's one thing i've always understood about it, blue is for minor things and red for when there's a real demand for hold.

Might be even good for folks to have both and experiment, for some, for some things they use it on, blue might be enough.

The remaining ones are now loctited in

You may be able to round up the parts at a local hardware store or Fastenal. I'm sure McMaster Carr has something online if you know how to find it (that's the challenge.)

I bought four hex head screws, washers, and nuts at Lowes in stainless steel for my license plate. Total cost was over $10.00!! But, I was too lazy to go sourcing parts on a Friday night anywhere else

Agree. Exactly the same thing happened to mine. In fact same bolt went missing. Have a Termi now am very happy!

Loctite perhaps?

They are now but I'm not sure that Loctite will stand up to exhaust heat.
