Hi guys I could not find the torque for the bolt and I found another bike was 44nm. So I did that well I did not think that’s probably for the bikes that have the big nut and not the bolt and I broke it off. I got it out with a left hand drill bit. But want to ride this weekend. I got a bolt from the hard ware store that fits. It has a flange but still a smaller head than the original. Also the hardness says 10.9. I think that’s kinda hard so maybe to brittle. Would you guys think I could ride for a day with this bolt? I will order an oem one.
I’m 29 now and the past couple of years I have gotten real Nervous about mechanical problems. Makes me feel better to have everything right. Don’t want the front sprocket to fall off on the face of a jump or something.haha

Would it be the engine sprocket cover bolt? It’s 11nm.
I’m actually surprised that the torque is 32nm and the oem bolt broke at high 30s. That’s not much over.
