RT125 - back wheel nut tension

Postby Mozeley » Sat Nov 15, 2008 4:20 pm

Hey Guys,

I've got an issue with my chain slackening way too quickly - I have a suspicion that it's where the back wheel is slowly slipping towards the front.

Does anyone know what the specification is of how tight the back wheel nut should be? I have borrowed a Torque wrench from my mate, and a gonna tighten it up tomorrow.

Cheers,

Moze.

do inspect wheel bearing if you have wheel off i changed both front and rear at about 13,000 miles
they were very dry and lots of noise when i replaced the oem tires

Thanks Dave

I haven't got a Owners manual, and I can't find one on the internet anywhere :(
