Torque Specs for 2013 Polaris 800 Switchback Pro-R

[mngolf4]

Looking for the torque specs for the following:

1. power valve cover bolts
2. steering post "buckle" bolts

It appears you have to move the steering post and remove the valve cover to get the clutch side power valve out.

I'm pretty sure the power valve bolts themselves are 12 in-lbs.

Thanks in advance!!!

I've never torqued those. Blue loctite and use a small ratchet I.e. 1/4" drive gives you a good feel when its tight

I always say tighten err up till the head snaps off, then back err off a quarter turn !

keep coming loose

the bolts on mine don't hold very good , somebody had what looks like little springs on the bolts , still can't figure what good they do any way

Taken out of Polaris service manual:
1- Exhaust valve housing fasteners: 10-13 ft lbs- Apply loctite242 to fasteners
2-Lower steering post clamp fasteners: 15 ft lbs
Hope this helps
