Have found the exhaust nuts loose at my front cylinder.

Also have heard that 65 foot-pounds is now recommended on late Dyna exhaust clamps.

I think that's "werd" (word), as in he agrees with what you said.

BTW, I totally agree about periodically checking the torque on all critical fasteners. One time I found the riser bolt on the wife's nightster was completely loose, another time it was the the exhaust flange nuts. The way that thing shakes at idle, I'm surprised all the bolts aren't loose.

OK. Sorry I did not catch that.
RE: loose riser bolt. Good thing you caught it. I broke a floorboard bracket on my baggar and didn't know until I was doing my rounds. I learned the hard way with ape hangers and know alot of people who have too.
