Default 2017 FLSS Torque Specs.

Thank you in advance, and sorry if this question has been asked before, but my search has yielded me no answers.

What is the torque needed for the exhaust manifold flange's nut for a 2017 Softail Slim S (FLSS).

I have looked through the user manual but no answers there.

Again, thank you for the help, and ride safe!

100-120 inch-pounds.
Recommend you get a service manual.

I'm sure many ignore it... but....

In addition to the torque spec, there is also a procedure, or an order, in which to increase the torque to the final spec. That procedure ensures the exhaust gaskets are crushed evenly and seal properly... I always follow the procedure and have never had an exhaust leak...
