    Check this out. Torque sheets are buried in the PDF manuals.

    This is way old... almost a year (your original post) and I was going to PM you but I figure that someone may have the same question. Which (I am assuming) is what to torque the spokes to?

    It is my understanding and what I have done in the past is, it is based more on getting the rim true and then having the same tighness on all the spokes going by feel. They are easy to strip out and you can also really get your wheel out of whack if you overtighten spokes. I am sure if you google just tightening spokes there should be heaps of info out there.

    Cheers,

    Page 29 (or Chapter 3 page 9)

    spoke torque is no different than any other bike. I don't believe in torquing spokes (with a torque wrench) unless you are putting together a new wheel and spoke threads are clean and lubricated. After a couple rides I don't believe torque on spoke nipple will give you proper tension on spoke. Do them by feel.

    Thank you,
    Seeing as how I have a 2011 rs,I look in the appropriate manual and there is a picture of a countershaft sprocket on page 29. Now why didn't I think to look in a 2007 manual, for a completly different bike, for my torque specs? I challenge anyone to find them in MY manual! HA Ha Steve
