Clutch torque settings

tsmales · #1 31-Mar-2006, 15:19

Hi, how tight are the bolts holding the pressure plate supposed to be ? I've looked in the manual but all it says is
"insert a spring and cap in each hole and secure with screws at the specified torque"
Any suggestions, please ?

not much at all

6Nm if I recall. Bottom them, handtight then just give them a nip. Copaslip them before refitting to make future life easier to

Thanks Nelly, When you say bottom them do you mean all the way (handtight) ?

They snap very easily, screw them in all the way then just nip them up with a short allen key.

A Ducati mechanic once snapped one of the "turrets"off my clutch hub by over-tightening!

Still, I got a free clutch under warranty!

Thats it then, Fairing back on in the morning and fingers crossed for some dry weather

Thanks for the help.
