    subframe bolt torque and locktite

    Hi,

    Just picked up a replacement bolt for one that fell off my bike.

    It's one that holds the pillion peg subframe to the frame of the bike. (10mm x 30mm).

    Two questions:

    1. What kind of torque setting would I use for a bolt like that?
    2. Is it "normal" to use locktite in this kind of application?

    Cheers,
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.
