I would hope that you would notice pretty quickly if it came loose though. |

Re: rear axel nut torque
I noticed this error in the haynes manual too. Had me confused for a while but the k3 owner's manual says 100nm

Re: rear axle nut torque?
DarrenSV650S is right re the error in the Haynes manual. Chapter 1, page 2 under Servcing Specs has 65Nm for both models but it should read: 65Nm up to 02, 100Nm 03 on.

Re: rear axle nut torque?
the torque setting for the rear nut is tight
before nyloc nuts people used castellated nuts which required you to either tighten it more or slacken it off to get the R clip on. i think that the US bikes are still the same. personally i think 100nm is way to tight. |
