I can't find a torque...

All,

Putting my bike together after replacing the rings... I cannot find a torque value for the exhaust to the cylinder head.

Looked through my books and the "How to" thread.

Thanks in advance,

According to the manual, tighten in stages:

first to 8 Nm
second to 12 Nm

mmmm, my manual says working left to right tighten top nuts to 19Nm, then bottom to 19Nm(Again Left to right), finally tighten top ones again to 19Nm

I hand tightened these with a 3/8" socket wrench. I checked the torque to 12 Nm and even with the studs and nuts rusted... I thought the torque seemed light.

Appreciate the information,
JoeDirt
