Hi all:
I need torque specific needed to bolt the alternator to the magneto cover?
any help appreciated
thanks in advance

 

Not sure of the torque specs for your bike, but you should probably put some red loctite on those bolts. Its a real pain when those bolts come loose.

 

thanks for the tip. appreciated.
can someone gimme a rough idea about how high the torque normally ranges?
thanks

 

Did I miss something? I don't see what make/model of bike you're asking about.

 

sorry, 05 gixxer 1000

 

From what I can find, it's 6.5-8.5 lb/ft of torque for the cover bolts. I could be wrong so I take no responsibility for any damage that may be caused by using these settings.

Call your dealer, they will probably tell you.

 

Thanks. appreciated

 

btw, do I need to put some liquid gasket when I bolt the cover back on?
thanks

 

Dunno the answer to that one, some Lock-Tite couldn't hurt.
