I just got back from the dealership for the second time in 2 weeks to order bolts that have mysteriously are missing from the bike... What I believe to be shaken off. I do not want to loc tite all the bolts so I will have access to them later but with the short time it is a little rediculous. I am about to go over the whole bike and just make sure everything is tight.

Is this a problem that bolts shake loose and we have to continuously make sure our bike is tight?

I'd talk to daisy, she keeps finding extra bolts! Maybe there some kind of wormhole or stargate from your bike to hers??

Lol, sorry scooter, I need a coffee!

actually that may be an acceptable answer. lol

Scooter, it's not a "known", habitual problem with the 250, but it's not unheard of (I myself have spent about $100 in bolts which I forgot to tighten down all the way). If it's the dealer's fault, they should pay for and replace, but if it's your fault because of your own wrenching....

Good luck..

Use the blue non-permanent loctite so you can take them off later if necessary.

Torque wrenches!!! loctite or a small dob of paint on the thread. All engines vibrate, I've lost a total of two fairing screws, dealership just whacked some free replacements in for me.

I too have lost bolts, and found extra ones all the time, it makes me question reality, lol

I'm liking the worm hole theory, I'm going to work on my bike today, so we'll see if I lose any and somebody gains some elsewhere
