What is recommended torque for the clutch nut?

Post by typhon2222 »

Hi folks,

I'm going to try replacing the old belt on my 2011 PCX 125.

I seem to remember that recommended torque on the nut holding the variator assembly in place is 44 lbs.... But don't know about the nut for the clutch. Could someone enlighten me? :P


(If anyone has any tips for swapping out belts too, please lay 'em on me. Is it as simple as just tossing the new belt on, and tightening the two nuts? Or do I need to tighten a bit, squeeze the belt to reseat it higher/deeper in the pulleys, tighten a bit more, etc. etc.?)

The Clutch outer nut is 36 ft lbs. in my 2013 manual.

The nut is a metric size so it'll need to be torqued in kg/m
