Torque Setting For Crash Bobbin

Can't tell you but I seem to remember seeing a guide to torque settings on the internet based on the bolt/thread sizes.

Something like this:-

No idea of torque I'd just do it - F T

 

Use some thread lock. Tighten with a spanner, tight but dont lean on it.

 

Hi Jon,
Maybe EP are finding it legally challenging to state torque settings now. They certainly used to in the installation pdf which was a great help.
You could subscribe to Triumph Technical Information to look it up and if you are doing more to your bike, it would be worth it. Or you could do a rough check with the torque needed to undo it, which might be waste of time, but FT is risky on cylinder heads. I believe it's 80Nm but you should get a 2nd opinion, there's bound to be one along soon who's fitted the same.

 

I thought it said Frame Bobbins,
Otherwise anything in Aluminium better to be wary.

 

You're right MoreT, it does. I've recently bolted the same frame bobbins onto a Street 765 and the bolts are engine mounts. The EP pdf doesn't make that clear either.

 

If it's going into alloy then i'd treat it like a spark plug. Hand tight then quarter turn with a spanner. Use common sense. Don't exert your muscle power.

 

Phone your triumph dealer for a definitive answer, they can look it up in a matter of seconds. Thats what I've done in the past.

 

Have a look at the Triumph frame protection fitting instructions attached which quotes 48 Nm. These are what I have fitted to my Striple.

 

I agree 80Nm is the torque stated in the Service Manual. Be careful not to disturb the adjustable shim between the frame and cylinder head on the right hand side.
