I know what mine are on my bike. What does your owners manual say under the changing a tire section?

This question goes in 'the garage' section. I use 'the force' to get a sense of the torque values. Then I call Greg and ask him.  |

I just did mine. I'll check my 06 manual for you. The manual specifies an interesting method of tightening the front axle and pinch bolts. This was the first time I did it according to the manual.
