Shop parts for a 2014 Honda CRF50F Dirt Bike.

The 2014 Honda CRF50F represents another year of the iconic beginner platform with the proven 49cc air-cooled four-stroke engine and automatic transmission design that makes the CRF50F the natural first step for young riders entering the sport. For parents who prefer to maintain their child’s machine themselves, the CRF50F’s straightforward construction provides an accessible service experience—once the correct torque values are understood for the small-diameter fasteners throughout this machine.

Wheel and Axle Torque

The 2014 CRF50F’s rear axle nut is the fastener most frequently checked between rides on this small machine. Chain adjustment sessions always require rear axle removal and re-torque, and a proper torque wrench check after each chain adjustment takes less than 30 seconds but prevents the wheel bearing damage that results from chronically under-torqued axle nuts on a machine subject to regular chain service.
