Category-by-category specs
Generic specs that hold across this model run. Always confirm part numbers against your VIN.
Fairings & Bodywork
Injection-moulded ABS panels, belly pans, tail sections and fender eliminators. Bodywork is the most model-specific part on a motorcycle: panels are moulded per generation, so year range matters more than brand.
| Material | Injection-moulded ABS (OE standard) |
|---|---|
| Fastener spec | M5/M6 stainless with rubber grommets |
| Panel count | Typically 12-20 pieces for a full sport kit |
| Install | 180 min · Moderate |
Brakes
Sintered and organic pads, floating discs and braided lines. Pads and fluid are the two cheapest upgrades that change lever feel more than anything else on a motorcycle.
| Pad compound | Sintered for all-weather bite, organic for quiet low-dust |
|---|---|
| Fluid spec | DOT 4 (DOT 5.1 where specified) — never DOT 5 silicone |
| Disc minimum | Typically 4.0-4.5mm front, stamped on the carrier |
| Install | 45 min · Easy |
Exhaust
Slip-on mufflers and full systems in stainless, titanium and carbon. A slip-on typically saves 2-4 kg and changes the note; a full system is where real power gains and fuelling changes live.
| Fitment type | Slip-on (bolt to stock mid-pipe) or full system |
|---|---|
| Materials | Stainless, titanium, carbon-wrapped |
| Weight saving | 2-4 kg slip-on, up to 8 kg full system |
| Install | 60 min · Moderate |
Tires & Wheels
Sport, sport-touring and adventure rubber plus valves, rim tape and balance weights. Tires are the single largest handling variable on any motorcycle and the one riders leave longest.
| Sizing | e.g. 120/70 ZR17 front, 180/55 ZR17 rear |
|---|---|
| Pressure | Cold, per the swingarm or chain-guard sticker |
| Service life | 5 years from the DOT date code, regardless of tread |
| Install | 60 min · Advanced |
Windscreens
Double-bubble, touring and sport screens in acrylic or polycarbonate. Screen height changes where clean air hits your helmet, which is what actually reduces fatigue at motorway speed.
| Material | 3mm cast acrylic or polycarbonate |
|---|---|
| Mounting | 4-6 point bolt-on with well-nuts |
| Height range | Sport -50mm to touring +150mm over stock |
| Install | 20 min · Easy |
Crash Protection
Frame sliders, engine guards, axle sliders and bar ends. Fitting sliders costs far less than a single fairing panel and typically pays for itself in the first low-speed drop.
| Mounting | Engine mount bolt, frame-specific brackets |
|---|---|
| Slider material | Delrin / POM head on steel mount |
| Typical coverage | Frame, axles, bar ends, engine case |
| Install | 60 min · Moderate |
Parts that are year-specific on this bike
- Bodywork and fairing panels — moulded per generation, never cross-generation
- Seat pans and cowls — latch positions change with refreshes
- Wiring, ECU and lighting connectors — often revised mid-run
- Brake master cylinders and lever fitment — check the assembly, not the model name
Torque reference for common jobs
General ranges by thread size for the fasteners on this bike. Confirm the exact figure in the service manual for your model year before final tightening.
| Thread | Tool | Steel | Alloy | Where you meet it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| M5 | 4 mm hex / 8 mm | 5–7 Nm | 4–5 Nm | Fairing bosses, instrument brackets, small covers |
| M6 | 5 mm hex / 10 mm | 9–12 Nm | 7–10 Nm | Engine covers, sprocket cover, heat shields, light brackets |
| M8 | 6 mm hex / 12–13 mm | 22–26 Nm | 18–22 Nm | Caliper mounts, disc bolts, footpeg hangers, exhaust hangers |
| M10 | 8 mm hex / 14–17 mm | 40–50 Nm | 32–40 Nm | Fork clamp bolts, rear sprocket nuts, shock mounts, engine mounts |
| M12 | 10 mm hex / 19 mm | 75–90 Nm | 60–72 Nm | Front axle, front sprocket nut, swingarm pivot bolts |
| M14 | 22 mm | 115–135 Nm | 95–110 Nm | Rear axle nut on mid-size bikes, some swingarm pivots |
| M16 | 24 mm | 170–200 Nm | 140–165 Nm | Rear axle nut on large bikes, steering-stem nut on some models |
Per-job figures and the full chart: motorcycle torque reference.
Getting the torque right
- Torque figures assume clean, dry, undamaged threads. Oil on a thread can raise the real clamping load by 20% or more at the same wrench reading.
- Where the manual calls for thread-lock, the figure is a wet figure — apply the locker, then torque immediately before it cures.
- Tighten in two passes: to roughly 70% of the figure across all fasteners, then to the full figure in the same order.
- Replace, never reuse, any fastener specified as stretch-to-yield, and always fit a fresh crush washer on a drain plug.
