Compensator nut and clutch nut torque for 2007flhx
#11
Used 165 while back. Insured all threads were clean and primed and used the red permanent grade loctite. That worked. I tried the torque plus the degree thing this time and realized at least on my older design (04) comp that when you mark the position on it, it tends to also move when nut is turned making that method totally unsuitable. (cover with springs slips) Guess you are suppose to mark it way up on face of primary cover?

the New bolt ( actually a nut) come with locktite already in the nut.
If you cleaned the threads on the nut and the crank well and applied red locktite..you should be ok with re-using ..( lots of bikes out there that have used the nut several times).
the manual is a CYA statement regarding the one time only use.
