Sidestand bolts Torque Settings?
Had my stand off (and also loosened the braket it clamps to, which is bolted to the side of the engine) to clean it all up and take any slack out.
Problem being, I can't seem to find any torque settings for the nuts and bolts.
The ones I'm talking about are as follows.
Looking at the small plate which is attached to the engine side, there are 2 bolts.
The front one, a long one that goes right across to the other side with a nut on the other end.
The back one which just bolts thru onto the engine.
So that's the 2 bolts which hold the plate on.
Then, the bolt that screws into the front of the stand (which actually holds the stand onto the plate)
and also the nut that goes on the back of this bolt.
4 torque settings in total.
I can't seem to find any of them in my manual.
I can do some pics if it helps identify them (if someone can help)
Many thanks
