GENERAL INFORMATION 1-11
Torque and Locking Agent
Tighten all bolts and nuts to the proper torque using an accurate torque wrench. An insufficiently
tightened bolt or nut may become damaged or fall off, possibly resulting in damage to the m otorcycle
and injury to the rider. A bolt or nut which is overtightened may become damaged, strip an internal
thread, or break and then fall out. The following table lists the tightening torque for the major bolts
and nuts, and the parts requiring use of a non-permanent locking agent or liquid gasket.
When checking the tightening torque of the bolts and nuts, first loosen the bolt or nut by half a turn
and then tighten it to the specified torque.
Letters used in the "Remarks" column mean:
L: Apply a non-permanent locking agent to the threads.
LG: Apply liquid gasket to the threads.
Lh: Left-hand threads.
M: Apply molybdenum disulfide grease.
O: Apply an oil to the threads and seating surface.
R: Replacement parts.
S: Tighten the fasteners following the specified sequence.
SS: Apply silicone sealant to the threads.
St: Stake the fasteners to prevent loosening.
The table relating tightening torque to thread diameter, lists the basic torque for the bolts and nuts.
Use this table for only the bolts and nuts which do not require a specific torque value. All of the values
are for use with dry solvent-cleaned threads.
