Don't forget to remove the cam chain tensioner before removing the valve cover. Otherwise you'll inadvertently over tighten the cam chain when you reinstall everything.

As for the valve cover bolts' torque, mine was I think 86 or 87 inch pounds. Definitely check your manual.

Damn your all knowledgable lol already loving this forum. Thanks for the heads up the plugs and tensioner. I gotta get a manual asap so I know these torque ratings. Can't wait to get home and ride it some more!!
