I spent all my moto money on new suspension instead of buying a factory service manual. Tried searching the site for torque specs for the triple trees and rear shock bolts, but no luck. Is there a handy reference for those values?

I undid the triple-tree bolts with a small 1/4" socket drive and would tighten with the same unless I have numbers to set on my inch-pound torque wrench...which may or may not be as finely calibrated as my right wrist.

Thank you,
Neil
