TIGHTENING TORQUES
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 war-
page, tighten multi-fastener assem-
blies 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. Pass the hot starter cable over the radiator mounting boss.
B. Pass the throttle position sensor lead under the hot starter cable.
C. Fasten the throttle position sen- sor lead and the hot starter ca-
ble.
D. Locate the clamp between the hot starter cable protector and
rubber cap.
E. Fasten the neutral switch lead below the oil hose. and pass the
neutral switch lead on the inside
of the oil hose.
F. Pass the neutral switch lead on the inside of the oil hose.
G. Fasten the neutral switch lead, CDI magneto lead, and radiator
breather hose onto the frame.
They should all be clamped
above the engine bracket to the
left of the downtube of the
frame. The clamp ends should
face backward and the rest out-
side of the frame.
H. Pass the clutch cable through the cable guide.
I. Pass the neutral switch lead and
CDI magneto lead behind the
frame.
J. Pass the hot starter cable on the
inside of the cylinder head
breather hose.
K. Fit the coupler projection into the
hole in the cover.
L. Fasten the sub-wire harness on the CDI unit bracket.
M. Fasten the sub-wire harness at the position-taped portion.
N. Pass each lead under the clamp. Locate the CDI magneto
lead on the outside of the igni-
tion coil lead. Locate the throttle
position sensor lead, neutral
switch lead, CDI magneto lead
and ignition coil lead so that they
do not lie one on another.
O. Fasten the sub-wire harness to
the CDI unit bracket with the
clamp ends located under the
bracket.
P. Fasten the neutral switch lead, throttle position sensor lead,
CDI magneto lead and ignition
coil lead. Fasten them around
the periphery of the recess be-
tween the tension pipe and radi-
ator mounting boss on the
frame.
Q. Locate the clamp ends within
the arrowed range. Assure that
the clamp end does not contact
the cylinder head breather hose. R. Pass the radiator breather hose
on the outside of the CDI mag-
neto lead and neutral switch
lead.
S. Fasten the throttle position sen- sor lead and hot starter cable.
Fasten them between the cylin-
der head breather hose and
throttle position sensor tube
clamp. Fasten the clamp with its
ends toward the right-side of the
frame and cut off the other end
with 3 to 5 clamp holes left in it.
T. Locate the radiator breather hose end above the down tube
and between the oil hose and
engine guard.
U. Fasten the neutral switch lead above the oil hose, and pass the
neutral switch lead on the inside
of the oil hose.

outside of the ignition coil. E. Insert the engine stop switch
lead into the CDI unit band.

pipe portion directs as shown
and lightly touches the projec-
tion on the brake caliper.
B. Pass the brake hose into the
brake hose holders. C. If the brake hose contacts the
spring (rear shock absorber),
correct its twist.
D. Install the brake hose so that its
pipe portion directs as shown
and lightly touches the projec-
tion on the brake master cylin-
der.
