Re: It's always a good idea to double check the torque on the brake bolts after remov
But I would just clean the old locktite off the threads and use blue locktite on it and re-use. I wonder if the ST1300 manual says to replace the rear shock mounting bolts too ??
Maybe Honda got some feedback about that bolt loosening after being removed and reused on the ST1100 and that's why they want the bolt replaced on the ST1300.As far as the 1100 goes, the service manual says nothing about thread locking the caliper bolts, nor replacing them. A simple torque spec is all that is mentioned.
