Torque values for sprockets - jermo47_imp - 08-17-2017
Anyone have the torque value for the front and rear sprockets? I have a 2014 standard and will be changing to 17/43 and will need to torque these badboys back down appropriately.
Also is there a how to on changing the rear sprocket? I think i can figure it out but just in case its always nice to see if someone else has done it.
Thanks,
Jermo

For the rear, the book says remove the nuts and driven sprocket from the driven flange. Thats easy.
For the front, see your PM in a few minutes.

I recommend loosening and tightening/torquing the rear sprocket bolts while still on the bike, otherwise you will be applying a lot of torque and the wheel will move about unless someone else holds it.
Stand on the right side of the bike, put your foot on the rear brake, and loosen the nuts. Same to tighten/torque them.
For the front sprocket, put it in gear and stand on the rear brake.

Got it done on friday night and went riding around 300 or a little more miles this weekend. 17 front, 43 rear on the 2014 is the sweet spot according to my likings.
Thanks all for the assistance.
