Mike's CB550 Project
Mike_Berkshire:
Got my rebuilt wheels back today with the new tyres on - hurrah! Tyres fitted wrong way round so going back to the shop tomorrow - boooooo!
I’ve been trying to find the torque setting for the bolts that hold the front brake disc to the hub. Reading a 2017 post to the US forum it reads as if 13 - 18 ft/lb does this sound right?
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Mike, the 500 manual I have shows 13-16.6 lb ft for the 8 mm disc nuts.
Oddjob:
Page 2 of the manual Mike, front brake disc bolts, 8mm 13-18.1 ftlbs.
Mike_Berkshire:
Thanks guys. Needles have been adjusted with carbs in situ. The clip was on the 4th slot down from the top so I have relocated in the 2nd groove down from the top. Wheels back with the tyres on correctly so I will be refitting to the bike tomorrow. Well that’s the plan.
Oddjob:
That would have made in rather rich Mike.
