[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 611215, member: 615"] Must be a lot of stripped oil pan threads on Yamaha bikes. They seem to recommend the same drain bolt tightening torque for all their bike engines. A few examples: 31 ft-lbs. 2004 FJR 31 ft-lbs. 2009 FJR 31 ft-lbs. 2009 FZ1 31 ft-lbs. 2009 R1 31 ft-lbs. 2009 R6 31 ft-lbs. 2009 V-Max 31 ft-lbs. 2009 V-Star 1300 31 ft-lbs. 2009 Road Star It's odd that the recommended drain bolt tightening torque for the FJR's rear drive is only 17 ft-lbs. Maybe the engine oil pan is made of sterner stuff. If the 31 is an error or oversight one might wonder when they'll stop repeating it. [/QUOTE]
