Screw tightening torque list
Here is a table of torques recommended for tightening screws in lots of
places of various motorbikes. I have included all the information I could
gather about the screws, their location, diameter, material etc. so everybody
who cannot find his own model of bike here may be able to get at least
an estimate for the correct values.
If you know the recommended torques for motorbikes which are not yet
included in this list, mail
me! I hope I will be able to add more models here.
All information is supplied without liability!
Some of the technical phrases are in german, anybody who can translate
these into english is welcome!

Disclaimer:
I do not take any responsibility if anyone uses these tightening torques
for whatever purpose. If you break a screw, your brake falls off or your
bike vanishes in a puff of smoke - your problem. You should have asked
someone who knew what he said. I do not.
