That is the axle nut torque. He is talking about the bolts holding the rear sprocket to the sprocket carrier.

I think it is something like 40NM--don't quote me on it but it ain't 100.

Nope that is correct info right out of the BMW SERVICE MANUAL!
It is for the nuts that hold the sprocket to the carrier.

If I post, you can bet your ass it is correct info based on current information.

Would be very helpful if someone can look up the torque setting for the bolts that attach the frame sliders.

TIA

Frame Slider Bolts - Torque ?

**1000RR** · 09-07-2010, 10:35 AM

Rear sprocket to sprocket carrier - 110Nm --> Go to Post #4 -->Torque Specs and then click on "Rear Axle, Rear Wheel Drive and Rear Wheel Guidance"

My bad. Haven't really changed them much yet. That is higher than on the other BMWs with chains but in the S's case it is a much larger sprockey/carrier and chain.
