Streetfigther V4 handlebar clamp bolt torque and "sequence"

hodarah · Jan 1, 2022

Hi guys, happy new year!

Do you know the handlebar clamp bolt torque and "sequence?"

My dealer told me it's 25 N-m. Kindly confirm?

They said I should tighten the front 2 bolts first then the rear 2 (like on my Yamaha,) but I feel that it's designed to be tightened rear -> front?

Thanks!

BTW this is how it looks like after I torqued the rear 2 to 25 N-m then the front 2 to 25 N-m. They are tighter than the factory.

i suspect this is the same as brake or clutch parts:
the bottom pieces are flat, the top pieces are asymmetrical.
the side without the arrow is slightly ramped, so to say.
you can check that with holding the top piece to a flat surface, pressed to the wrong side it will not fit.
at brakes the arrow has to point to the top because of water and common practice.
i would point the arrows to the Front because of fly's.
the arrow-ed side has to be tightened first, to full moment.
that makes the 2-pieced clamp a 1-piece part and stronger because the gap is closed, again, so to say.
on the other side the gap stays open after tightening.
i don't know if that needs 25Nm, i never used a torque wrench for that.
i hope my explanation and expression is half-ways understandable.
