Just had the front wheel repaired by Maidstone Motoliner, really pleased with the quick/quality service they provide! Now need to put the wheel back on. Bike's a 695 but not sure of torque specs for:
Front wheel nut (63?)
Rotor disc/bolts (25?)
caliper bolts (43?)
Pinch bolts on bottom of fork (20?)

In brackets is what I think it is. Done it before but memory is playing tricks on me.
Thanks

Front wheel nut (63?) 63Nm +/-5% with grease (MolyDiSulph)
Rotor disc/bolts (25?) 24Nm +/-5% with ThreadLock (Medium)
caliper bolts (43?) 43Nm +/-5% with grease (MolyDiSulph)
Pinch bolts on bottom of fork (20?) 20Nm +/-5% with grease (MolyDiSulph)

almost spot on, taken from '06 S2R1000 factory workshop manual

Rob I wish you had posted those specs earlier...:grump:

It would have saved me ringing DM for that info...

Yes Rob another project...:dizzy:

You should have just asked mate!
personally, these days I use my magic torque-o-wrist(tm) for guestimating 3 of those but use a torque wrench for the disc bolts still (Of course I would never publicly recommend such a cavalier approach though)
