Just gotsome Pilot Powers put on my rims. I removed the rims myself but now my torque wrench disapeared. How much should i tighten the axle nuts for the rear without a torque rench or any other of the bolts for that matter.. Anything would help..
Thanx

 

What bike? What's the point of telling you the torque if you don't have a torque wrench to do it?

 

Its a 2000 CBR F4. I dont want the torque specs. I want to know how much i should tighten it without a torque rench.

 

i wouldn't. I would go barrow someone elses or find out who took yours. You don't want it to tight and def not to loose. If not i just bought a new one at sears for 90 bucks.

 

yea dude really, that's not something you want to play around with without a torque wrench

 

Thanxs.. I'll go get one before i put the tires back on..

 

You can get away with PFT on some things such bolts going into the frame or bolts with nuts on the end. If your working with aluminum threads... be REALLY careful or you'll be retaping the threads. Best off to use a torque wrench for those sensitive parts.

 

What happened to cotter pins? Cotter pins were used to be threaded through a tightened nut..like a rear axle nut...to keep them from backing
off...

The axle itself had a hole drilled through it...

Jeez..I missed alot between 1995 and 2006....

 

How did you remove the front rim off the bike?

Only way i could see it is hoisting it from above...any other ideas?
