1995 Cobra CM50 Dirt Bike Torque Specs
Shop parts for a 1995 Cobra CM50 Dirt Bike.
The 1995 Cobra CM50 refines the competition motocross 50cc platform in its second year with improved suspension calibration and component updates. The air-cooled 50cc two-stroke in the competition chassis serves young riders who are actively racing the 50cc class rather than learning on entry-level equipment. By its second year the CM50’s handling character is well sorted — consistent chassis geometry maintained by correct fastener torque allows the young riders who race it to develop genuine motocross technique rather than adapting to a loose or inconsistently handling machine.

Competition 50cc Notes
Premix two-stroke — no oil drain plug. Consistent pre-race fastener verification is standard practice for the CM50. A 1/4-inch drive click-type wrench is required for all fasteners.
Thread Locker Application
- Rear sprocket nuts
- Disc bolts
- Subframe bolts
- Exhaust flange nuts
Torque Wrench Selection
A 1/4-inch drive click-type — 2–25 Nm range — handles every fastener on the refined CM50. Consistent calibrated torque allows the young rider to focus on race craft, not handling inconsistencies caused by loose fasteners.
