Calvin (no socks) Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Ok, I'm ready for Colorado, but I've got to torque the rear wheel before I leave... anyone with the specs? Link to comment
Carnadero Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Ok, I'm ready for Colorado, but I've got to torque the rear wheel before I leave... anyone with the specs? According to the repair manual I have (2001 - on), initial torque is 50 Nm, then final torque is 105 Nm. It says: Working in diagonally opposite sequence, tighten the outer wheel studs to 50 nM. Fully tighten the screw in the center. Fully tighten the outer wheel studs in diagonally opposite sequence. Link to comment
bmwmick Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Ok, I'm ready for Colorado, but I've got to torque the rear wheel before I leave... anyone with the specs? For the K1200S it's 60Nm NOT 105. That was for the old K-Bikes. Mick Link to comment

Carnadero Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 For the K1200S it's 60Nm NOT 105. That was for the old K-Bikes. Hmmmm. Would it be best to differentiate between "old" and "new"? When I see "K" I think "brick", and the new K is definitely not a brick. Link to comment
Calvin (no socks) Posted June 13, 2006 Author Share Posted June 13, 2006 Thanks, I'll go with 60... By the way "Special K" works for me. Link to comment
Limecreek Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 It's 60 Nm for the new R bikes too. When do you shove off Calvin? Link to comment
