Hi all
I was wondering if anyone knows what the torque spec is for a 2024 Tri Glide front axle nut. Also what the pinch nuts torque spec. On my 2017 the axle nut spec was 70-75 and the pinch nuts were 18-22.
My 2017 tri glide did not ABS. The 2024 does have ABS. I wondered if these spec’s were different because of the ABS.
I have 350 miles on bike and it feels like the front end is starting to “bounce” for a better term. At first no issues but more miles more and worst it is getting.
One of the times I had a new front tire put on my 2017, by my dealer I had this problem. I checked the front nut spec and needed to turn the nut 1 and 1/2 turns to bring it up to spec. Test ride and it was smooth as silk. I already checked rear nuts after 100 miles and they needed to be tightened. Concerned they didn’t tightened front properly.
When I took delivery and drove home, literally 5 miles, I pulled into garage, noticed a bug smear on left side mid-frame air deflector. I wiped it off and heard clunk, clunk, clunk. Looked under bike and saw a bolt under it. Turned out it was one of the bolts that holds the air deflector on. There was only 7 miles on the bike !
Thanks for any help
David.
