On my 01 road king, are these 3 caliper bolts suppose to have grease put on them when installing?




Thanks guys

 

Nope.

Those 3 hold the caliper together.
Those other 2 smaller bolts, I am pretty sure are the pins that the pads (holes in brake pad plates) slide on as guides and they can take a very small amount of grease.

 

Grease the small ones between the big ones.

 

Ok thanks. I had greased the 3 big bolts. I took them back out and wiped them off, so hopefully that won't cause any issue?

 

Clean with solvent and use blue Loctite. Stops them coming undone and helps stop them corroding in solid. You need to do them up to right torque too. When all else fails, consult the factory manual.
