James R-B Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Hi to all, I recently have been given a Sinnis Max 2. It has been through a handful of owners and it needs some attention. Does anyone happen to have the Manual/torque specs. Thanks in advance James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideWithStyles Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Ask the dealer for one? look up at mychinamoto forums to see if someone has posted it up? the motor its self will be easy if its a air cooled single it will be an old Suzuki engine.

James R-B Posted October 19, 2023 Author Share Posted October 19, 2023 Thanks for the information. I have previously contacted Sinnis who were useless. I have had no luck with being able to make an account with mychinamoto (Website doesn't allow me to create a password...tried on both computer and phone to register) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideWithStyles Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Sorry to hear that but not surprised, thats why most people avoid them. Well if your in a real pickle id choose the nearest bike it relates to like a suzuki gs and use those as a guideline. Put this down to experience, dont buy one and spread the word. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaross Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 The way you generally torque bolts on those is you get the inch and a half ugga dugga, the type fanny craddock used to keep for Saturday nights with Johnny. And you put it on the swingarm bolt, lifting the bike as you do so. You then spin the bike rapidly until it F**ks off into the heart of the sun never to be seen again, and go buy something worth putting time and money into. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John splendid Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I didn't know what a Sinnis was but a quick check on Google suggests there are pdf copies of various Sinnis manuals available free, if you haven't already tried that. They look tidy enough from the pictures and the reviews seem ok, based on a quick glance. After all, if, as you say, you were given it, you really can't go wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree not worth putting money into but to make sure it's safe to ride etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaross Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Tbh you can usually apply a bit of common sense to torque unless you're into tight tolerance stuff - engines and things. Something like a rear axle nut? Gutentight Brake caliper? Give it a nip up Head bearings? Usually tighten up like a motherfucker to seat, loosen then about a 1/4 to 1/2 turn - you can feel when they're right. My advice, list the essential jobs and tackle in priority order. Crossing off as you go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
