Torque Spec
I'm working \\;out of \\;town and am away from my manual. \\;I'm doing some handlebar adjustments this afternoon and am wondering if the 4 bolts that secure the bars to the risers on the street bob mini apes \\;have a torque spec? I'm sure "tight enough" will work, but don't want to have them under spec and start moving on me. Thanks.

RE: Torque Spec
With riser bolts finger tight:
 \\; Install rear clamp bolts finger tight, then install tighten front clamp bolts to 12-18 ft-lbs, then tighten rear to 12-18 ft-lbs. Torque riser bolts to 30-40 ft-lbs. You want the risers to be able to move and find the center of the bar before you tighten them down. This way also lets you adjust so your bars are in line with your trees.
