Team, I bought the repair kit from Brembo to renew the seals of the brake callipers, cleand them, separated them, renewed all, but got stiuck as the Brembo documentation doesn't state the torque for the calliper halves bolts. Has anybody got an idea or a link? Thanks, Rene.

Hi Rene,
Im keith, Not sure what an fo8 is but in the clymer bmw manual on page #647 in chap. 14(1990 and later model supplement)cause Ihave a 1995 k11lt,it shows ft. caliper mtng bolts outer 2 bolts5-10 N.m/3.6-7.4ft.lbs. and inner 2 bolts25-35 N.m/18.4-25.8 ft.lbs.
I do have brembo calipers on my flying brick also,and the manual is for 1985 to 1995 k-series bikes.
Hope this helps and maybe some more knowledgeable folks will be along shortly to help and chime in? ( blue95lt)

Thanks Keith, well appreciated!!

I think your info is for the 4 piston calipers. Mine only have two pistons and two bolts, but I guess, from your info that using 30 Nm should be OK.

Thanks, Rene.
