Clutch Spring Torque
Im changing the clutches on a vtr1000 superhawk. I am installing new springs and the manual say tighten to 9ft lbs/12nm. But the bolt is not even half way in before im showing 9 lbs.
Anyone else ever come across this or have a better way.

Re: Clutch Spring Torque
make sure there is nothing in the threads like thread lock and if you have to clean them out use a thread chaser not a tap because a tap will leave metal flakes and a chase will just clean any crap out......and yes oil the threads also but then blow out any excces oil from the hole
