So, I was on a ride this morning and found my clutch kept feeling looser and looser so we detoured back to the house.

Tried bleeding the clutch and a master cylinder to know avail, so I took the clutch basket apart… And found the center not was not quite finger tight !

I don't know where my service manual is due to me being a slob, so does anybody have the torque spec for the center not, and pretty much everything to put this son of a gun back together?

1190 RX/SX clutch nut


Loctite 272 and 170 Nm. Which is a shade over 125 ft. lbs. based on what the online calculator said.

This should get you started,

I found my manual five minutes after posting, and slung her back together. I didn't, however, use loctite due to it not being there before.

I'm assuming I should go back in there and fix that, right?

Doesn't take long, especially now that you've had some practical experience in there. Plus you can make sure that the clutch steel disks are all facing the right direction.

You should absolutely go back and use the Loctite.
