Title: Countershaft sprocket nut torque spec?
Post by: TheRadBaron on February 07, 2012, 05:29:16 PM
My manual seems to have left out the torque spec for the 36mm nut that holds the c/s sprocket on.  Anyone know what it is?  Thanks.

According to Clymer - Drive Chain Sprocket Nut 85 N-m,  61Ft/Lbs

Make sure you use the tabbed lock washer on at least 2 flats!  I've had this nut loosen itself previously.

Thanks.  Yeah, mine was loose when I took it apart.  I blame the PO, though.
