Exhausts and Engine » Torque Settings

Dose anyone have a list of all the Toque setting EG wheel front and back brakes calipers oil drain oil filter infarct every bolt on the bike that one might need for a major service .

It’s all in the service manual that came with the bike. All the major fasteners are listed. Even the handlebar bolts which is hardly a service item.

Torque specs for front brake calipers, front wheel, rear wheel are in your owner's manual.

Here are the ones I pasted to a list from US manual

Thanks yes those are in the manual but thing like sump plug are not and it has been recommended to re grease the final drive spline as some bikes are quite dry and the book dose not give toque settings for the drive toque rode and speed sensor . I was hoping that some one might have a link to a full list of Toque settings for the complete bike you know for all the things BMW dose not want you to know.

Can't resist noting, that this past weekend, I washed and put away the toque my mother made for me and which I wear around the house all winter.
(The Canadiens and fellow New Englanders with French surnames will know what I'm talking about.)

Neil, if one doesn’t have a service manual (and unless one seeks out this expensive item then there is a chance the average owner does not) then the best place to get all the torque settings you’d likely need is the Haynes manual. Get one of these and your torque questions will be answered - at the beginning of every chapter.

I have found most of the settings I require except the engine sump plug and both the final drive fill and drain plugs any one have these please

I always chuckle at these “torque” threads (‘cos I know what I’m doing)

As the above post suggests - and I’m paraphrasing here - if you have no feel for tightening screws/bolts, call them what you will, then use the handbook torque figures with great care.

There are few feelings worse than that “Oh Fuck!” when a final tweak on that humungous wrench suddenly goes from Tight to Slack.

Accurate torque (tightening) is important on multi-bolt applications for evenness of fastening and avoidance of leaks.

Our bikes have many fastenings in to soft aluminium - sorry, aluminum for our cousins - where the fastening only has to be tight enough not to shake loose. With or without thread lock.

Few of us will shear a steel nut and bolt fastening, but woe betide a novice turned loose with a torque wrench on a steel screw into an alloy casing.

[quote=Neilc|p38144 You run a very high risk of overtightening these with a torque wrench.

You're screwing steel into aluminum, beware.

I have Harbor Freight torque wrenches in 3/8 and 1/2" drive I think, and they're supposed to "click" and and release forward force when the set torque is reached. But, I too often tighten something "firm" with a short handle ratchet and then just a little more- like 1/8 turn most.
