Engine Mounting Bolts

[robindean]

Hey, folks. Help me get this right ...

I put together the following image with five circles, three green and two blue.

After reading through 7-10 in the '82 manual (appendices), I want to say that ...

1) The GREEN circles represent what's being called the "Engine Mounting stay (Front)"

2) The UPPER blue circle represents what's being called the "Engine Mounting Bolt (Rear upper)

3) The LOWER blue circle represents what's being called the "Engine Mounting Bolt (Rear under).

Am I right?

Correction ... I'm wrong about #1. It's saying quantity = 4 for that, so maybe that's just the chrome cover and the bolts are underneath?

The chrome piece is the engine mount. When you remove the gas tank, you should find the "missing" bolts.

Thanks, Dave!

Are the torque specs for those top bolts that go INTO the engine listed anywhere? I'd like to get anything that threads into the engine "just right" so that I don't strip them or under-tighten the most vital element

It may be under general torque specs in the appendices. They are large, hard bolts; you'll have a hard time stripping them. I'd wager you'd crush the frame or engine before the bolts go
