1. First, tighten the steering ring nut approximately 38 Nm (3.8 m•kg, 27 ft•lb) by using the steering nut wrench, then loosen
the steering ring nut one turn.
2. Retighten the steering ring nut 7 Nm (0.7 m•kg, 5.1 ft•lb).

GENERAL TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS
This chart specifies torque for stan-
dard fasteners with standard I.S.O.
pitch threads. Torque specifications
for special components or assem-
blies are included in the applicable
sections of this book. To avoid
warpage, tighten multi-fastener as-
semblies in a crisscross fashion, in
progressive stages, until full torque is
reached. Unless otherwise specified,
torque specifications call for clean,
dry threads. Components should be
at room temperature.A. Distance between flats
B. Outside thread diameter

CABLE ROUTING DIAGRAM
A. Insert the end of the fuel tank
breather hose into the hole in
the steering stem.
B. Fasten the throttle cable, hot
starter cable and rectifier/regula-
tor lead onto the frame. Locate
the clamp ends under the throt-
tle cable, and after clamping,
leave the other end as is and do
not cut it.
C. Fasten the diode (at the mark-
ing), throttle cable and hot start-
er cable onto the frame. Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower right of the frame and with
the tie end facing downward.
D. Fasten the wire harness, throttle
position sensor lead and clutch
cable onto the frame. Pass the
clamp through the hole in the
stay (air cut-off valve). Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower side of the frame and cut
off the tie end.
E. Pass the carburetor breather
hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose
between the connecting rod and
cross tube (frame).
F. Pass the neutral switch lead on
the inside of the engine bracket.
G. Fasten the neutral switch lead
and AC magneto lead onto the
frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the outside of the
frame and tie end facing toward
the rear of the frame.
H. Fasten the AC magneto lead
and neutral switch lead onto the
frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the rear of the
frame and cut off the tie end.
I. Pass the neutral switch lead and
AC magneto lead on the inside
of the wire harness.
J. Fasten the AC magneto lead
and neutral switch lead onto the
frame.
K. Pass the wire harness through
the cable guide.
L. Locate the couplers in the frame
recess.
M. Pass the carburetor breather
hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose so
that the hoses do not contact the
rear shock absorber.
N. Secure the coupler by pushing it
into the hole in the headlight
unit.
O. Fasten the throttle position sen-
sor lead and the hot starter ca-
ble.P. Locate the clamp between the
hot starter cable protector and
rubber cap.

valve-rear of cylinder head) onto
the frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the lower side of
the frame and cut off the tie end.
C. Fasten the catch tank breather
hose and carburetor breather
hoses together.D. Pass the carburetor breather
hose (of the throttle cable cover)
through the hose holder.
