Front Sprocket Torque F2 SOHC
« on: March 21, 2015, 08:06:46 AM »
Hi.

I have an F2 SOHC and can't for the life of me find the torque for the centre bolt that holds the front drive sprocket on. It only has the one bolt that goes into the spline, not the two bolt type. I found some mention of 5 kg.m but seems a little high. Last thing I want to do is strip the thread in the spline.

Cheers

Aaron

Thank you. A little reassurance is always a help. I did read that loctite was a good idea. I'll put some 2700 on and torque it up.
