My only thing is now do I tighten bolt side or nut side in the sense I secure the nut with a spanner and tighten the other/bolt side with my wrench..? Cherrs guys I know its probably a pain for such a simple question because you all know now.

Cherrs thats awesome.. Way over my head at my current level no torque settings in it maybe I misses it its 670 pages and from 2004. Seesm like it an full assembly manual. I was looking at a few oline myself but lucky the 2019 owners manual has it in 88nm.

I will have a look but surely thats the first thing I did and it just kept coming up with Haynes honda cb125f up to 2017 model so... But like I said I've found the torque I was just wondering if there was any other mag that does the same as Haynes

What the one I added futher up... Yeah but he got the torque wrong thats what brought me here he says tighten to 54nm when it is in fact 88nm

Hayness was my first thought but like most print they are almost dead and have moved all online and haven't got the honda cb125f 2021 revamp model it only goes up to 2017. But I would think it would be fair to assume torque specs haven't changed and it will still be worth a read as a bike is a bike even if things are a little different like for example the drain bolt for the oil was right underneath now its opposite side vertically. Is hayness the only guys that print stuff like that...?

I get it guys lol... I'm being a nerd but seeing as I habe a torque wrench I might as well do it right. Also I'm sure they mark these specs for a reason... But failed to publish them. I guess the whole concept of Newton meters doesn't matter at all lol. But yeah I get the general censors This is a reply to all that have commented since my last one um also no no where near Cheshire. Nearest garage is a Honda dealer and I very much doubt they will let me in the garage to work lol. But I don't need a garage its just adjust the nuts a few turns to bring my slack back to under 1 Inch. But thanks like I said I found the page from a 2019 manual its 88nm this is completely gone in my 2020 versions which is off putting tbh

Hi yeah I've seen that its the 2019 manual that actually has it in says 88nm also has how to adjust it but my manuals doesn't why I dunno all pervious manuals has at least some torque specs. It my understanding that it very important as it how much force the fitting can take. Or is it not as important as that surely they have to make a owner aware of such stuff out of liability reason and just good safety you don't want to tight it 2 tight and for it 2 say burn up ans snap or tighten it 2 lose and it fall out if it did and they hadn't published the newton meter spec thats gotta be on them Rang honda girl didn't know rang dealership who said that its in with the services but its not down till 12.000 miles and seeing as it has slack at 16.000 It couldn't of been looked at my 600 miles. This isn't a services thing is it? More a general maintenance thing like changing the oil I know thats 30nm they guy was like they wouldn't tell you that why wouldn't they. If I needed the engine striped Id take it 2 them I'm not going to pay £40 for an oil change which literally takes just a unscrewing a bolts new stup washer and maybe filter and o ring. Same goes for a bike adjustment that I might need to do every 1000 miless or so as roads aren't great and ita harsh weather. Next they want me to take it to a dealership just for a chain clean and lube. If it serious stuff you bet the dealerships it goes but some things are obviously just a money grab so we will see what they say if they ring back

Where are these maintenance manuals for my model.. Yeah i know a bike is a bike so most the big stuff stays the same but like I've said I have to reduce the chain slack and no one seems to knwo the torque spec's that all.

I found a chart that has a list for the swing arm pivot at nm. As I'm not taking the well off is it different torque for different sides or as it is all one bolts and nut but you obviously got the head of the bold which he said was 54nm so am I correct in the thinking the real axel nut refers to the nut the other side.

I found a 2012 manual that list it at 113nm.. The nearest manual that evem mentions torque specs is the 2019 honda cb125f one. Surrey they should just publish sucj things right...?

Hi guys so my chain needs to be adjusted my bike is an Honda CB125F 2021 model year brought and made 2022 Thing is my manual has be down grounded so much in fact it doesn't even have a section where it tells you how to do it. anyway I know how to do it but my issue is torque specs I saw some guy online aka YouTube seemed he uploaded a yeah ago he say the back wheel nut is 54 nm but I've found a manual for the 2019 Cb125f that says its 88 nm I think the guy in the video got confused between the rear engine rear axel nut which I assume axel refers to the wheel nut and he just found the first pic online let me know. First pics inwhich I think he is referring to as his reference 54 nm but it says rear engine mounting nuts I assume this isn't the wheel nut or is it...? In the 2019 manual it says in it very good and detailed manual why they messed with it god knows as they can get people hurt not telling them this stuff anyway it clearly says 88 nm He seems to know his stuff so anyway the video is here also incase you wish to see just skip to when he get to the chain.

Now worries yeah asked them they only go up to cb125f 2017 it was just a torque specifications query but since found out my manual compared to many other older ones is missing so much by comparison why I dunno. Cherrs tho P. S Ian you could help answer a pervious question that got lost in conversation the bike slack I measure both ways right up and down. Also do I clean the sprockets if so also the front bike is on 16.000 miles thhe chain defo needs adjustments as I think it was 3 inches of slack this morning so not good.

Its all good I can learn from many sources and I've learnt alot from you guys so thanks

Yeah I'm just so surprised that mine is missing so much like how to pull back the whell to tighten slack why would they miss that out just find it very strange. Yean I missed that also you did say 2016 seems they wanted to tell you how to fix things then aren't you guys surprised by how much is missing from my versions. What a cb125f owner fourm do they do that?

I know it said special tools what a spanner and socket wrench or torque wrench. But then I woukd have no idea why my back brake had more slack. As the is no page about it in my manual also say the crank breather it mentions it breathy but doesn't say anything else where it is or what I need to do. Same with the battery says I should rub of the connectors but then doesn't tell me how to take the battery out like yours lol Why is my manual missing so much yours even tells you how to change a whell can I ask how and where did you find it. I have to have mine serviced for the warranty which I've even extended another year just incase I'm prone to bad luck so I have to cover my ass. Yeah i get it alot of people don't care for me its not about the money but more I like bikes I want to know how mine works why it works and how to fix things whether that actually happens we will see will defo be alot harder if they don't publish stuff I can read and learn from. Did you just find that as a google search be interesting to see for what year it was for. My fault does say a few bits about the battery but as you can see so much is missing surely other people print and publish service manuals and repair manuals or is Haynes the only one. Did you say African twin I swear i read that they are putting a front facing camera onto the next revamp. You mentioned your have a torque specs page i have one 2 with just 2 specs for like the most unneeded specs light screws and licence plates screws. As for say the crankcase breather says if i ride alot to check and that it doesn't say how or where it is and I use my bike to commute so yeah she gets used alot.
