GSXS 750 2017 - Torque specs for Trex frame sliders

[schnecks]

Hi!

I am a proud owner of a 2017 GSX-S750. For a little protection I have ordered a set of Frame sliders from Trex.

Unfortunately the manual doesn't include the torque specs for the engine mounting bolts.
If anybody could help me with the torque specs for this two bolts? (The 2 engine mounting bolts )

Great forum!

36lbf-ft / 50Nm

If ever in doubt just tighten it with the same force you used to get it off.

Actually, I had that 36lbf-ft written down but in the service manual it says engine mounting bolt (cylinder) 50.5lbf-ft/70nm. That probably means i torqued to 36lbf-ft. Well, almost 5k miles and the engine hasn't dropped out yet.

I have found the 55Nm on the K4/K5 manuals too.
I'll go with the 70Nm.

Thanks a lot for looking it up!

That's funny, i just got my T Rex sliders tonight and i was going to ask if anyone knew the torque specs. Search box for the win!!!

Straight from my 2018 (2017 in rest of world) service manual - 70nm or 52 ft lb. Some blue threadlocker ain't a bad idea either.
