    Torque on Caliper bolts - GS750

    Hi, folks,

    I'm rebuilding my brake calipers and have an information gap regarding the rear one. The two Allen bolts that fasten the two halves of the caliper body--they require a certain amount of torque, which the manual says in listed in Table 1. But when I look at Table 1, quess what? It ain't there. Do any of you happen to know the proper amount? Thanks!

    If you have a 77-82 750 the tightening torque is 10.08-25.31 lb-ft.

      I torque these bolts on my '79 1000 (similar) to 23 ft/lb.
      And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
      Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

        tight

        on alloy parts I will normally torque between the specs and use some blue or green lock tite, to tight and the threads become unuseable after a few times of torqueing them. (engine parts to the normal with lube on the threads)
