What for the shock bottom bolt? It's only M10 fine... Not sure it'd take that torque?

So... the GSXR torque, or the SV one?

It's not. Just be careful you route the hose to the reservoir where it's not rubbing. If it's chaffing plastic it will go through the hose after a while.

Might as well strip and grease the linkage while you're about it too.

i think he wants to play with his new toys ... so
its 50 Nm or in old money its 36 lb-ft .. but if you are like me then its ...'yup thats tight' .. oohh .. dont forget you will need to stop the bolt from turning, so its contortionist time with a spanner on the other end.. |

Re: K5 gsxr thou shock going onto k5 pointy - will I need the lower gsxr shock bolt?
i had to cut the hell outta my battery box and used an old KR1s mudguard and gaffer tape to temporary bodge it until i cut out a new undertray.
Advice -Dremmel cutter helps lots when cutting things. |
