torque setting for clutch springs gas gas

[harryowens2]

Hi guys ,

I've recently had to take my clutch apart on my Gas Gas TXT 250 2000. Does anyone know the torque setting for the springs? cheers in advance

If that model has the standard 6 springs with the small bolt through the center of the spring, If I remember correctly the torque setting is actually quite low.

but I don't remember an exact number.

I did find for a Sherco, that the torque for the clutch spring screws is 0.7Nm (0.516 FT/LB or 6.2 IN/LB)

I know it is a different brand, but the clutch design may be similar enough that the torque is similar as well.

 That is a good way to break a basket that might be hard to replace. Being spring loaded they only need to be snugged up and just barely a small bit more.

6 IN/LB is just snugged up and just barely a small bit more.
