Does anyone have the torque value(s) for the bolts that hold the oil cooler shrouds on the current gen Monsters?  I assume they probably use thread locker as well.

Hand tight... probably 12-14.

It's not something like a brake caliper, steering head or similar where it's really important
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

all the plastic are pretty much hand tighten.
i only used mild thread locker on the front fender but dont even do that anymore, just check it when i was the bike

Thanks for the advice.  I just swapped for a Euro-spec left oil cooler shroud/air deflector since I had the emissions canister removed.  There did not appear to be any thread locker on the bolts, but I used a little anyway.  The left side of the bike looks better now.  :)
