  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Hi,
Got a 2011 WR 125 that I'm doing a full restoration on.
I'm done cleaning the crankcase and replacing all oil seals, and worn-out parts but I cannot find in the shop manual the torque specs for the screws that hold the halves of the crankcase together. Could be that my technical English is not that good to understand the torque table at the end of the manual...

Any help would be much appreciated!
 
Those are M6 screws, don't get crazy on them, I usually to about 10NM on them, by feel, I think using a torque wrench (and I have a few) on those small pars is not a good idea, I had an older bike and the PO did over tighten a few bolts, going to trust the torque wrench adjusted to 10NM resulted in wrecked thread, it was already damaged and could probably only take 8NM to say, but in trusting the torque wrench and going until it clicks can be a bad thing. Now I go by feel on the little screws and I don't have any issues.
 
Thanks for the answers!
I was asking as I already tried 9NM with a torque wrench and the screw snapped in the middle (was able to pull it out).
I have ordered a full set of these screws and will try doing it by feel as Hurky suggested.
 
They should all be socket cap bolts hex drive I usually tighten them in a specific order and between 8-9nm on the torque wrench setting with a bit of copper grease on the threads
