Title: Need some torque values please...
Post by: flux on March 16, 2009, 10:31:26 PM

Hey kids, doing the chain and sprockets for the first time on my 02. Can't seem to find the torque settings for the rear sprocket bolts.

Through much looking I did find where Stretch says the countershaft sprocket nut is meant to be set at 97 ft lbs. Correct?

We should develop a chart for commonly needed torque values. Most things I can feel out but chain and sprockets I won't do that to. My KTM manual states most of these settings... shame the Triumph manual that came with my bike is basically rough toilet paper.

Thanks in advance!

Yep, 97 ft-lbs for the countershaft sprocket nut.

40 ft-lbs for the rear sprocket nuts.

*Torque values from the Triumph 955i Tiger workshop manual.

Good idea about posting torque values. I'll work on it later and link it to Girly Wisdom. Maybe Mustang can do one for Steamers, since I don't have a Steamer manual.

Dude, everyone's ALWAYS invited. :thumbsup I will let you know next time I am headed over that direction.

Have you seen or heard from that other guy that used to post here a lot from GA? What was his name? He rode with me once and messed his leg up, had to ride to the ER in Dahlonega... I think it started with a 'W' perhaps...

WIDGIN, When In Doubt Gas It Now.

It has been about a year since I've seen Roger. He and TigerRider met HappyMan and I in Atlanta for lunch one day when HappyMan was in town. He's not posting on ADV either.

Maybe we should be more diligent in brushing our teeth?

Yup! Widgin, you got it. He was a nice dude, wonder what happened. Surely our oral hygiene isn't THAT bad! :oops:

Maybe it's just a busy time of year. I have his number. I'll give him a shout.
