85 foot pound, loctite the bolts if you don't want to lose the pulley like I did last year.

thanks. I just found that out myself, thanks to the previous owner. -thanks you jack azz! I had to get a new pulley and have my rim and the pulley drilled out and retapped since I lost all but 1 of the bolts while riding. not a drop of locktite on any of those stupid chrome bolts he had to put on. it tore up the belt cover and axle cover, theirs another couple hundred to fix. worst part is the dealership I got the bike from said they certified it and went over the every nut an bolt.... guess not.
just got to wait now for the pulley to come back from p/c. what a waste of 3 weeks in the prime of riding season here in chicago.
