I would just put another one in and tighten it with some Loc-Tite.. I'm sure someone will come along and tell you to have all of them re-torqued, but I'd just put another one in.

Ms T, if you're headed to the hardware store to get a replacement make sure and get "grade 6" or above,... and for sure use blue locktite.

Anybody have a schematic that will show bolt size and thread? It might be possible to pick one up at an auto parts store. No dealer available out there on the weekend.

Torque to about 30 pounds. "Real tight" may strip the aluminum of the bolt hole's threads in the head.

As inexperienced as I am at turning a wrench on a bike, I think I won't risk getting one from the auto parts store. I'll wait and get the right one from the dealership tomorrow, and pick up the blue locktite as well.
