Just on this Job right now and this write up has been perfect - I cant seem to find and torque value for that damper screw at the bottom for re assembly tho, yep I have searched right though my workshop manual but perhaps Im word blind ?
doing an online search and found a reference that when converted I get to 15-25 Nm
Appreciated if anyone knows -thanks

If Royston is referring to a 25 cvo I suspect it's the same as a 17 touring which is 30 to 37 fp.. It a 12mm screw IIRC. The one for an evo is likely 8mm which would be 132 to 216 in lbs. The manuals I have say it's 6mm but that is the socket head size and not the thread..

Just tighten it, or as the book says "secure it"
