Re: clutch wrench... - anutz - 26-09-16
anyone tell me what they torqued theres to if they did it 70NM or 90NM
will probs just do 80 later tonight otherwise :lol

Dunno if this helps, but I just looked in the official dealer workshop manual that I got for the 1998 R1, ( same clutch I think ) and it says 70nm.
Re: clutch wrench... - anutz - 26-09-16
thanks Flooky....will see what others may post till 8 ish then off to do the job.....it may well be i stick with 70, rather than risk 90 and tear things up....that would be a nightmare

I would go 70Nm, just did a check on a few bike that use the same nut in the clutch and they are all 70Nm.
You did also say it was easy enough to open. 90Nm would not have been easy to open.
Very scientific

yes, was not hard to get off, mainly as it was not rusted up or siezed with locking compound, and the torque wrench was massive :lol
I will go with 70Nm, if the R1 only needs that and they are the same bottom ends etc it suits me...!!!!
Thanks all for input...almost got this back together now just waiting for my rad from China and will post plenty of pics etc
Anutz!

You shouldn't be using a torque wrench for removing nuts or bolts, it is not really designed for it. You could strain the inners.
Re: clutch wrench... - anutz - 26-09-16
yep i know, its an old one that i dont use to actually torque owt up with
Re: clutch wrench... - anutz - 26-09-16
jobs done!!!
thanks for the input all - one of the trickier jobs i think.
Almost there now

oh as a tip anyone else do this and want to double check the clutch pull rod has engaged properly, just take the oil cap off and operate the clutch, its obvious...
Also to check the engagement before its all bolted up i.e. before you screw the case down once you think it has engaged, operate the pivot on the casing and it will pull the casing onto the engine casting....
both handy.
