[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 1333740, member: 6354"] The FJR head bolts and main bearing bolts are not re-usable, as they are stretched by design when properly tensioned. I haven't done head bolts, but I HAVE done the main bearing bolts, as they come out when you split the case. They are tensioned in a manner similar to what is described in the first post, but rather than an angle from contact with the surface, it is an angle from a given torque reading: turn the bolt to such-and-such lb-ft, then turn 120 degrees farther.
