Torques/Lock-tite

For the issue of old and lots of vibration. What is the recommended choice of keeping all your fasteners? I understand the continuous visual inspection is a must. Do most just go by recommended torque specifications or are there certain fastener areas that are prone to come loose and use Lock-tite or something of that sort?

I used lock tight on nearly everything. My biggest worry is the wheels. I Lock-tite'd the front end caps holding the front wheel on.

If the Triumph manual gave a torque spec I used that. Everything else got a little Lock-tite
