Tightening
Torques for every freakin' nut/bolt on the BMW K1200RS |
Gather 'round, lads and lassies... gather' round. The Pirate wants to save you the cost of a shop manual (and hopefully get my $100 worth) by listing below the torque values for the 1997-2004 BMW K1200RS and the 02-05 K1200GT. Keep in mind that ALL values listed in Nm.. NOT ft lbs except for the lug nuts value. Values are listed below just as they are in the factory manual. |
