2024 Speed Twin

I can't help you with the specifics of that bike (a model l continue to hang my nose over) but l've reused countless bolts and nuts such as hub bolts, ball joints etc in contravention of the received wisdom and have never had one fail or come undone on me. A smudge of Loctite 248 is handy if you feel so inclined. I would be tempted to whip off the silencers anyway to do the rear dampers, then you can do them one at a time which is much easier as the other side pretty much holds everything in place. That's how l did the Hagons on my Bonneville anyway

 

On a StreetTwin I just dropped the silencers off and did one side at a time on the sidestand.
There's no need for paddock stands etc and one side will easily support the weight if you are replacing with similar length units.

Same bolts reused, after cleaning, with a small smear of loctite.
Exhaust gaskets reused, no issue, copperslip added to pipe clamp threads.

 

I’ve been advertising a set of NTR3 stealth edition
shocks for sale in the classifieds for less than the price of a set of the ‘basic’ NTR1 shocks for some time now.
These are a superb upgrade over the standard shocks and IMHO far superior to the Ohlins equivalent as these have both hi and lo speed damping adjustment which the Ohlins don’t. .
I still can’t understand why they haven't been snapped up yet Are they too cheap? Should I increase the price?

 

The only bolts I've ever renewed, other than damaged, are stretch bolts such as cylinder head and big end bolts etc which are designed as single use. I've replaced quite a few bolts on my ZZR with stainless as the plating on the standard bolts is shite, as with just about every bike I've ever owned.
