CRF300L Various Torque Settings & Front Axle Tool

- I list some torque settings for the CRF300L, as there's no service manual and the owner's manual does not list common torque specs. I also show a commonly available tool, needed to remove the front axle bolt.

Great info on the torque settings and the front axle shaft bolt! Thank you!
You're welcome. Glad it helps :-)
Thank you very much for the torque specs - realy needed them right now🤗
Glad it helped :-)
Great video thank you i was looking for these torque specs everywhere !!!!!!!
Happy it helped :-)
Thanks….great video. Great information for the front wheel nut and all the torque values.
Glad it helped. The owner's manual could have been more detailed.
Thanks friend for the great info you supplied in you video. Just when I needed it. Have a great day
Happy it was helpful :-)
Great video. Thank you for the torque info. :)
Thanks, and you're very welcome. Wish I could have gotten more.
Good on you for posting up the torque specs. I'm not going to lie: I support pirating the service manuals, and have shared many copies of the XT manuals, which were hard to find for the newer XT250. I wish you luck finding one for your 600.
I wish I could have gotten more torque specs, but at least those are common. I do have a digital version of the service manual for the cb650F. I hope there may be one for the 300L in the offing someday. When companies gouge their good customers they deserve to have their manuals copied.
Torque specs 👍🏼 thanks!
Glad it helps. Heads up, if you join the CRF300L group on FaceBook there is now a full service manual in the files menu.
Dude, Thank-you! I've been trying to get torque values from my dealer and Honda Canada with no results.
I'm so glad it helps. I just wish I could have gotten more. As it was, many of the diameters they gave me were inaccurate. These figures come from their service manual in their computer system. That caused me some pause, so I double-checked that the torque values were correct, and I did not pass on any of the incorrect diameters, nor did I give the figures for the other fork and triple clamp bolts, as there were discrepancies. Quite strange that Honda made so many mistakes in their information for dealer service departments.
Great, thanks a bunch for the torque settings and the front axle tool! Strange way to remove the front axle, but they want to sell the expensive tool or better yet have you bring the bike to the for service.
Yeah, one more tool to pack on the trail :-)
You can also buy 14mm sump plug sockets. I got a 3/8 drive Draper one for £4 off Amazon. Thank you for your video.
Yes, a few options out there. As long as a person has something in their tool bag. Thanks Jack :-)
Man, my 2017 crf250l had the same style front axle hex !
I didn't know that. My 2013 crf250L did not. So this is old hat for you :-)
I am going to mount the Motoskill crash bar. What is the torque for the three lower motor mount points?
For the 300L there are four engine hanger nuts Two upper and two lower. They are 10mm thread diameter. The three I think you might mean are:
Rear Lower: 33 lbf.ft torque
Front Lower: 41 lbf.ft torque
Front Upper: 41 lbf.ft torque
The rear upper nut is 33 lbf.ft torque if you need that. The only other spec they give for the Engine unit is an Engine Hanger Plate Bolt which is 8 mm thread diameter and the torque is 20 lbf.ft
Hope that helps :-)
Thanks for the numbers.
Do you happen to have the torque spec for the oil plug?
Yes, I forgot to include that. It is 18 lb.ft
I've experienced the same "problem" with the oil appearing over-full in the sight glass when I know I put in exactly what the service manual says. While having the oil significantly over-full can damage the engine, a little won't really do much so I stick with the manual. The sight glass also seems to be extremely sensitive to the angel of the bike in both roll and pitch, so that's another variable.
Yeah, I wonder if the internal components that changed to stroke the engine are somewhat beefier and have displaced a bit more oil causing the level to rise slightly as compared to the 250 engine. I never experienced similar with the 250 version. It was always below the absolute full mark after an oil and filter change.
Man, I don't go by the amount it says to use, just fill it until it's to upper mark on the sight glass !
@@markcollins5026 It's just a few mm over the mark on the sight glass so negligible level difference in the crankcase. No worries Your method is more fiddly than knowing the right amount in the first place. Now I know to use a couple ounces less. Can't really watch the sight glass as you fill because you have to start it and let it warm up to fill the filter, etc, before you can read the sight glass. That's more steps. I like simple :-)
You can get a whole set of them there Allen sockets at kraken for the same price as just the 14 mm might as well get 6 sizes than just one thanks for the torque specs !!
Yeah that'd be the way to go if you need more. I have lots of Allen socket bits; just not this size.
I also added 1.5L after oil change, and it was a little bit over too . I guess its more around 1.3L . I also nitoced some of the torques are the same as 250L . Thats what I went by when I took my front wheel off . (I had some squeeking so I greased the axle and bearings its good now I think)
Yes, most of the values are the same as the 250L. Some are changed however, such as the fork pinch bolts on the triple. They used to be 12mm bolts torqued to 24 lb.ft. Now they are 8mm bolts torqued to 21 lb.ft. As for the oil level. that small extra level seen in the sight glass will not be an issue. A few mm's extra in the glass would be very little extra in the crankcase. Just an observation is all.
Do you know the torque specs on lowering linkage bolts?
Do you mean the rear suspension shock linkage? If so, the torque on both the frame side shock link bolt and the shock arm side link nut are both 44 Nm (32 Lbf. ft.), and they are both fitted with self-locking nuts. Hope that helps.
@@Scoottoots Thank you!!
You the man. It's unreal how useless Google has become... unless you need brain washed.🙄
becoming all too true. If you're on FaceBook, the 'CRF300l/Rally Owners Group' has the full Service Manual for download in the 'Files' section.
what are the wheel axle sizes can some one please tell me
Answered in your follow up comment, re: diameter
Thank you for posting this...I paused the video and wrote everything down !
By chance, do you know the torque for the oil filter cap?
The oil filter housing? I don't use a torque wrench on those bolts. I think the value is 8 or 9 lb. ft. Those bolts are soft. If the wrench isn't accurate at these low settings, the bolts snap easily. Instead I use a small 4" ratchet and snug then tighten a smidge more. You can develop a feel for how far is enough. Another thing I do when changing the filter is I put a small magnet on the outer side of the cover to hold the spring in place on the other side while placing it over the filter. Stops the spring from going sideways on install :-)
Does it matter which way the rear axle goes? I took the rear wheel off and can’t remember from which way it goes? Lol help 😅
No, it does not matter. On my 300L though, the nut is on the rigth side of the bike, so the axle slides through from the left side.
@@Scoottoots Thank you 🙏
the diameter
The diameter of the axles are not listed in the specs manual. Guess you'll have to remove them and measure.
no torque values given you were talking about oil and gloves 👎
You probably skipped through the video instead of actually watching. The torque values were given at around the minute mark.
@@Scoottoots you are right, I was working on the bike looking for the values. Sorry for that one :D
@@zhanchi90 Ah, no worries. I now have the service manual so I have all the torque values if you need any that aren't listed in the video.
