Anti-seize, not Loctite.  If the bolts back out then put lockwashers under them.  Do not glue your bike together.
With all the old grungy Loctite removed and the nice slippery anti-sieze on, the bolts spin right in.  Better yet, they'll spin right out when you work on them the next time.  Now they free-run.  You could use your fingers if you wanted and just snug up the last quarter turn.  Same way coming apart-- crack em loose and the free-run the rest of the way.  Free run: Good.  Loctite, glue, Permatex and silicone: Bad.
Get all the screw started and, unlike me, who will be suffering a few pictures later, start the big footpeg screws right now talso.  I didn't and the gasket partially blocked the holes.  I was so late and I was so rushed I did not loosen the cover-- I just leaned on the wrench and forced the screws to cut into the paper gasket-- shame.

For Explorer: Open "Files/Page Setup".  Clear contents of header and footer box.  Set margins to 0.  Windows will default values back to minimum possible with your printer (i.e. 0.213).  You can open "Files/Print Preview to see what page will look like.  Open "Files/Print" and set range from 1 to 1 in order to suppress the printing of this instruction box.  Explorer will convert all colored backgrounds to white and all text to black.  Once again, geeks trying to do your thinking rather then doing your work.  Aren't you glad you hate Microsoft?  Don't you wish everyone did?
Notes:

Authoring: This site is created with the free composer program that comes with Netscape.  We are using 4.7 since rev 6 will not start on our Win2k box.  (Some coincidence that the latest Microsoft OS breaks Netscape huh?)

Our Guarantee: No Frames, no Java, no Swift C, no cookies, no cascading style sheets, no dot net monopoly bully and no Active Server Pages.  Minimal graphics and no audio without request.  Most documents in this site are available on pdf format and those will have full graphics content.  We also make the source documents available whether Excel or Word or Autocad.  We believe engineering and technology are an art.  Free sharing and expression are more important than small-minded monopoly rent seeking.  Feel free to use the files and materials on this site.  Good luck with your projects.
