Check all bolts/screw are tight

[ChrisMember]

O.K I checked nearly every nut on my bike found several that were loose and just needed a little nip but there were 3 that were real loose, luckily I caught it before they came all the way out. Also have some loose spokes, I’m not comfortable tightening these at the moment so I’ll get some assistance with this. T.B??

Cheers

I forgot to mention that I recently went over every bolt and screw on the bike to check for tightness. Pretty much all was ok except for a few plus one.

The 4 front mudguard screws weren’t as tight as they should have been . I can honestly say that I have never checked these before over the past 4 years, but I reckon that if i hadn’t redone them with some blue threadlock, that they would have probably come loose on the next long ride or two. My point is that it is probably worth checking yours as well, if you have never done so.

What happened with the chainsaw back guard, I saw the duct tape but forgot to ask what happened (called it duct tape, but on a honda that would be 100mph tape and on a KTM you could use thread tape it wouldnt even need to stick ha ha ha )

Yep checked all again the other night, couple of loose ones but nothin like the last time.
