Hi All,
Will soon be rebuilding a 600 flywheels what is the torque setting for the big end flywheel nuts I don't want to over tighten them and crack the flywheel which happened to my friends Royal Enfield with tapered fit. Thanks Clive.

Re: torque setting for flywheel
There isn't any listed setting, apart for FT, which means very tight. I would suggest a minimum of 60ft/lbs, I have never heard of any Ariel flywheels breaking under those circumstances. In deepest rural France whilst cruising at 60 mph on a nice sunny morning, yes but not while building the crank.
