Can someone walk me thru it? I'm sure mine are getting lose or at least it seems so...
If an official BMW service schedule is believable, checking the torque of the frame to driveline bolts then tightening them up to spec if necessary is done at 12,000 mile intervals.SniperX wrote:Motor hasn't been out but it's never been retorqued since new

There are differences; your feelings are not betraying you, Olaf. In the BMW repair manual to which I've referred, distinctions are clearly made between faired and unfaired models with bridge-mounted or plug-mounted tanks. Personally, I'd go along with BMW and just tighten where needed unless the bike had been dropped hard or frequently. If frequently were the case though, I'd probably sell it, or have it exorcised.92KK 84WW Olaf wrote:But if you are unsure, also check the shimming and mounting instructions.
