Me again. Thanks to all those guys with info on the squeaky xb. I have replaced the saddles and greased up the relevat areas (covering both bases) and it is a nice quiet ride again. Cheers.

I have another query though. Can someone tell me the torque settings for the head bolts and exhaust man bolts on the precross 6? I have had to pull off the head and without a manual to get the specs I was hopng soneone might be able to help. (no point in doing it up too loose).

Thanks

I hate typin this stuff out...... head is 3 stages, Do all up to 1st stage, then redo to 2nd stage, then redo to 3rd stage. Check the head gasket, It may need another tighten after a week.and be sure to clean your head bolt threads well before u use them
