front reflectors

[hayabusafalcon]

When you take off the front reflectors,i assume the bolt has to be torqued back up to specs where its the top one for the brake assembly,does anybody know the paticulars on this?

Mounting bolts on the front caliper are 39 nm.

I agree with Rev,,,,, But if your that picky use the torque wrench!!!!

I use a torque wrench for every "critical bolt" ya know, like axle's, tripple clamps, brake rotors, etc. But for simple mechanical connections, ya know metal to metal, I have allways used the "Spin till it stops, then snug" method, or like I said, "Gudentight". I think one of the keys is to be certain your not using a wrench with too long of an arm, or a ratchet, and be familiar with what type of metal your wrenching on. OH and Remember SUzuki Aluminum is used as Sandwich Spread in most developed countries. Holy crap is it fuggin booger soft.

I am not saying you don't need a torque wrench. Not at all, in fact your going to need at least two to cover your torque needs on a Busa.
