Default Riser Bushing Bolts

Can someone tell me the proper torque value for these two bolts, I can't find it in the service manual.

The manual for my 06 WideGlide calls for 30 - 40 ft lbs.

Don't over do it. If you go too tight they'll vibrate like crazy, I torqued mine right at 38, and they feel great.
