Das Forum rund um die Honda NX Baureihe

Hello,

Last day I was checking my valves play, and the RH exhaust cap was very very hard to unscrew. Probably Loctite, so I screwed it back thinking about coming back later with something to heat the head a little.

A few days after, while riding down town, I had that:
Just wanted to know if all of the Dominators have only the RH exhaust cap with Loctite or not?

And is it something from stock?

Thank you for your comments.

Sorry, I totally overlooked that question .
I guess the previous owner was too cheap to buy new seals for the caps (somewhat expensive h[url]ttps://www.cmsnl.com/honda-nx650-dominator-198 ... 352mg2792/[/url]) and used some kind of sealant instead. With good seals you won’t need any kind of sealant (given that the thread is ok) and it’s important not to over screw the cap’s thread: 15Nm is given by the manual.

Bytheway: on the pic it looks like that the o-ring is not stock: too thin and black - OEM ones are green.
