Rear sprocket change

[Luck]

I have been going through the manual and either Im not using it correctly or it doesn't show what I should torque the rear fixing bolts? (Sprocket to hub bolts) to. Did anyone need shims when eliminating the sprocket protector? Thanks

Often in the manuals you'll find a specifications page up near the front that gives torque specs for different size bolts. These are typically applied everywhere unless another spec is mentioned in the manual.

What bike?

Thanks. I have a manual, is there more than one? Mine doesn't show anything about torque specs.
I just looked again, found them on page 80 on my manual. Oh well. Thanks for taking the time.

For sprocket bolts that likely have locking retaining washers, I usually just tighten them till I can't do much more with a standard socket ratchet. 'Tight is tight' usually works for me.

A dab of blue loctite is always a nice idea too.

and if your simply grinding and punching out rivets, no you wont need any shim. the guard is on the outside face of sprocket.

Your correct, it's been so long since I've taken stuff apart. Lol Just bolted it on. Thanks
