Yes, I have an owners manual and cant find any torque spec. I'm sure the service manual has all that info but I don't have one yet

I have not purchased an Official HD Shop Manual yet however, I called my local Harley Shop and spoke with the service department and they told me the correct torque specs for the rear axle on a 2023 HD Roadglide is 140 ft lbs.
