heffergm Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Anyone know what the torque spec is for the top bolt on the stem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toneh Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 No but if you look at the manual the swingarm pivot is 60 _70 nm and the stem is a similar size and function It will be one of the higher tourqe bolts on the bike so just use your judgement More important is the lock ring on the steering bearing , not a lot can happen even if the stem bolt comes loose ( provided you've clamped the fork legs back up Tighten it and just keep your eye on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bron yr aur Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Most dirt bikes state around 50-70 Nm as toneh stated. You'll be safe with that. However, usually it takes several tries being able to balance the two nuts as far as torque without getting the steering too tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
