Im closing up the bottom end of my CB750 F. Should I locktite everything or can I just locktite the main crank bolts? Whats the best bet? If I have to take the cases apart again (for machine work) I dont want to shear off all of the smaller bolts.

Don't use any locktite on the case covers or crankcase screws/bolts.

I never use any Locktite. Clean surfaces, new gasket and tightend the screws well.

I am curious what Mrieck does but I clean the threads with a wire brush and use a very small amount of of antisieze. Dan
