Need torque specs, 900 twin

Beels · Feb 6, 2008

Looking for torque specs for the cylinder bolts, head bolts and coolant tube bolts on a 900 Cat twin.

Thanks in advance!

The base bolts and nuts are 54 pounds, the heads are 28 pounds. No idea on the other, if I remember I will look tonight when i get home.

Go 18 then 24 on the heads, Ive seen 28 strip them, Ive done at least 20 and 24 works fine.

I think the spec is like 18-28. So what he said sould work great.
