Front brake caliper XLR125RW

Just been stripping and cleaning front caliper,seized and had plenty of neglect.

Surprised to find it is a twin pot,is this the same as other xlr's?

Anyone have any torque figures for bolting the caliper back to the fork leg?

I have a Handbook on its way ,and Honda parts listings.

Are there any sites that list the torques required for normal servicing?

All questions me

Re: Front brake caliper XLR125RW

it is not unusual for it to be a twin pot, the cr, crf and xlr's are virtualy the same
as for torque, i have never used a torque wrench on mine.

Just do what everyone else has done at least once - tighten it up until something strips, and then regret it....................

If that means lbs per foot (ft-lb) it should be 18.
