front sprocket torque spec

[dixonpower]

Does anyone know what the front sprocket torque spec is and should I put thread lock on the bolt?

Thanks,
Bob

If it is a 10mm bolt I think it is like 8ft lbs and yes use lock tight.... call the dealer he will have the correct torque....

I think the service manual says 16 or 22 ftlbs for that bolt. I will have to double check it when i get home.
