The manual said low end of torque was 125 inch pounds so that is all the tighter I made them. Started @ 50 then 90 then stopped @ 125"#'s. I was going to use some blue loctite but did not feel comfortable doing that so if I check the tightness after a ride and all is still 125"#'s maybe it was not a bad idea. I am grateful to have access to this thread and the good reading it provided. Thanks
