    Hi Everyone

    I am getting confused left right n centre trying to figure the torque setting for the wheels. Everyone is coming up with different values. I order a Haynes manual and god know what figures are going to show in there!!!. Can someone please kindly validate if I have the correct figures herein below:

    Bike: 2011 Speed Triple 1050

    Front Wheel Axle: 95Nm
    Rear Wheel Nut: 146Nm
    Caliper Mounting Bolts: 55Nm
    Axle Pinch Bolts: 22Nm

    Thanking you all kindly :)

    Thanks Darkman. When I take the rear wheel off chain doesn't require an adjustment? Where as the normal swingarm I have worked on, I always have readjust after putting the wheels back on.

    65Nm for the front axle! !!where the he'll did I get 95Nm....I would have ended up doing some damage. Thanks a million for the right torque settings; -)

    Correct, rear wheel removal does not affect the chain :D

    Yesterday I took the bike for a full suspension set up and it was pointed out that my rear tire has cracks in them and weird ripples in the middle. I was advised to swap them over before having some fun on the bike. I bought a pair of Metzlers M7RRs 120/70 & 190/55. I am going to take the loose wheels to a my local bike shop and get the tires swapped over.

    I did but I think I got the figures from the Haynes manual :-(. Looks like I didn't do a good job of it

    image.jpg Section 1.26 triumph service manual

    Update.
    This info is for early models. (2005 VIN 210445 on)
    There is an updated version for bikes from VIN 461332 on so do not use this info on later models.

    Thank you Taff. This is so confusing. Am I looking at the wrong figures or vin no in the haynes manual. Mine is a 2011 model. There is massive difference between 65 Nm and 110 Nm.

    R_1000 stick with the 65Nm !
    I changed my tyres a few months back and I also had picked up that 110Nm figure from somewhere on the 'net, but when torquing up I got to about 75-80Nm and it just didn't feel right, I'm sure I would have done some damage if I'd kept going.
    I can only assume it's a misprint or for other/earlier model.

    I do my front axle at 65nm as the pinch bolts hold it anyhow, like you say anything over and it feels like it's going to rip out the threads.

    Thanks guys. I feel better and I can trust the haynes manual now. I spoke to haynes today n they cross referenced with triumph and confirmed their haynes figures are correct. They are going to email just that page for me to cross check for my peace of mind :). 65 Nm it is :)

    Here we go....official triumph manual page I just received from haynes published in 2011. The numbers match that of the haynes manual ;-). I'm happy to go with the haynes instructions :')

    The triumph service manual I copied is issue 1 03/2005 and covers VIN 210445 on.
    Trouble is there's a later version on World of Triumph covering VIN 461332 on, (92 quid!)
    The 2005 service manual is not correct for later bikes so disregard.
