Hi guys,
First of all, motorcycle noob here so my knowledge is extremely limited and I would be very grateful for any help.
I bought my motorcycle at a dealer, and it already had these R&G frame-sliders installed, mounted to the engine basically.
Somehow while driving, one of them fell off. I still have the OEM bolt, however it does not fit since the holes are not aligned. I'm assuming this is because the engine has dropped lower on the side where the bolt is missing. The dealer / internet also says that I should absolutely not drive without this bolt...
I've a few questions:
- Does anyone know what bolt this is? The washer fell off so I'd have to buy a new one for that as well, and I can't seem to find what exactly this part / bolt is called ...
- How much torque does it need to be applied with?
- How can I actually fix this myself, since I am advised to not drive without this bolt?
Here are some pictures attached. The right side of the bike where the frame slider fell off, and the left side where it is still intact.
Thank you
