Torque settings for YS125

[David Goulbourne]

Hi
I recently dropped my 2018 YS125 (stupidly) and bent the brake lever and scuffed the exhaust protector so i purchased a new one as i would like to have it relatively intact when i do eventually sell it on.

So I'm asking what are the torque settings for the front brake lever and the exhaust protector. im guessing hand tight for protector and 6-7 Nm for lever. I can't find any workshop manuals out at the moment

You're over valuing your current ride; a tiddler is either going to be sold to someone who will pay what you ask because they have no idea what they're looking at or someone who wants a second bike and knows that you probably don't know what you're talking about and just want to flog it on so will haggle you down. There's hundreds of other types of person, of course, but the bottom line is that 125cc's, on the whole, are there to be abused and thrown away, eventually.

Leave exhaust protector and replace brake lever; use how hard it was to undo as a gauge as to how much effort you should put into tightening up.

I wouldn't focus on torque settings, mind, given that the more you work on a motorbike the more you get used to telling how much tightness you should put into something. For example I recently took the rear huger of my bike and that required a 1/4 (the least powerful ratchet: 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 -- weak to strong, left to right) ratchet and a small 4 mm 1/4 socket bit and so could tell that it was only going to need to be tightened gently.

Most probably your levers held on by a single screw, you could undo it and have it out in less time than it takes you to read this.
