91 K 100 RS clutch nut torque

[whosyurdaddy]

  I'm trying to figure out the correct final torque for my clutch nut (91 K 100 RS ) . Drake Smith has 36.9 (ft lbs ) for a K1100 which is part of his K 100 RS specs . My climber has 65 - 82 for a K100 or 37 - 74 for a K 1100 . Judging by the amount of force it took to break the nut loose , it felt like the nut was torqued to K 75 specs . Thanks

K100RS4V, K1, K1100: Tighten the clutch nut to 140
Nm, loosen it and then retighten to 50 Nm.
I have had no issues after doing it like that

Then there are the attached instructions from the K1 – K100RS16V BMW Workshop Manual from this site that has the patina of a Dead Sea scroll.

Laitch thats what I was looking for , Thanks . I ran across the page you posted awhile back but for whatever reason I couldn't find it again and i tried several different search's . My new clutch bolts should arrive today and hopefully everything is reassembled by the weekend .

As I mentioned, that page is in the K1-K100RS16V BMW manual available for download in the Repair Guidance section's Master List for anybody who is interested. The manual also has useful exploded drawings of the bike's component systems.
