Fitting Tips for Yamaha YZF1000R Thunderace Stainless Steel Fasteners

When fitting 304 stainless steel fasteners into aluminium components on your Yamaha, a suitable anti-seize compound can help reduce thread galling and corrosion between dissimilar metals. Check the workshop manual first: use anti-seize only where it is appropriate for the specified fastener and installation.

Important Torque Warning: Lubricants and anti-seize compounds reduce friction and can change the relationship between tightening torque and the clamping force produced by a fastener. A torque specified for a dry fastener may not be appropriate for lubricated threads. Follow the Yamaha workshop manual and the fastener and anti-seize instructions; do not apply an assumed percentage reduction.

Before fitting your new bolts: Read our guide to fitting stainless steel motorcycle bolts and torque settings for more information about anti-seize, thread galling, dissimilar metals and correct installation.

Fitting supplies: Biker Bling 7g copper grease is also listed separately in this category. Check its suitability for the application before use.
