    Torque specs for front fork seals

    I have had a difficult time finding a service manual for my XJ1100 and I need to replace my front fork seals. Does anyone have the front fork torque specs for the triple tree, front axle, etc.?

    According to the Service Data on the Yamaha Web Site,

    Front axle nut torque 11m/kg, which comes out to ~75 ft/lbs.

    Front axle pinch bolt is ~14 ft/lbs.

    The triple tree clamp bolts are around 14 ft/lbs.

    The Triple Tree TOP BOLT/steering bolt is around 60 ft/lbs.

    Perhaps someone with an XJ manual can "tighten up" these values, but they are close!

        Hey Blazking,

        No problem, that's what I'm here for, and BTW, I just checked the specs from a service manual, the axle nut is 80 ft/lbs, all other torques are correct!
