Hi Everyone-
I'm usually over in the airhead and vintage sections, but have a question that brings me into the K bike zone.....so I hope I posted in the right place!
I'm building a /2 conversion bike (1965 R50/2 with a 1974 R75/6 engine), and doing a front disc brake conversion. I'm using a Brembo 4 pot from a 1997 K1100 (and other bikes from the era I believe), and am wondering if anyone cal tell me the torque value for the body/bridge bolts securing the 2 halves of the caliper body together.
On disassembly for cleaning, it would appear that the longer outer bolts had some kind of factory thread locker on them, but the shorter inner ones did not. New pads arrive tomorrow, and so would like to get it ready for mounting.
Any insight is appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
ECJ
