Check those Bolts before you ride!!!!

Just wanted to pass on a little bit of wisdom. My buddy with his almost new 850 just had his upper rear a-arm bolt fall out during a ride last month.

We were back in the sticks and could not find the bolt. Ended up using an Allen wrench for a temp bolt, duct tape and wire ties to hold it in.

Before my ride I was checking everything out and the right rear upper A-arm bolt was loose. I torqued it and all was fine. Just seemed odd that the right rear bolt fell out on his as well.

As you can see in the picture you don’t want this to happen 15 miles from the parking lot.
