I'd recommend springing for a service manual - pays for itself in no time if you do any of your own wrenching.

Upper handlebar clamp screws: 16-20 ft-lbs (21.7-27.1 Nm)
Front axle nuts 60-65 ft-lbs (81.3-88.1 Nm)
Front axle holder nuts 132-180 in-lbs (14.9-20.3 Nm)
Fork bracket pinch bolt 53-57 ft-lbs (71.9-77.3 Nm)
Fork cap bolt 60-70 ft-lbs (81.4-94.9 Nm)

+1 on that, or check your local dealer's events schedules. Lots of dealers having 20% off sales this month in anticipation of riding season. Of course, that's us Northerners.

...because the manual has all kinds of other info.

like perhaps preventing the front brake switch from breaking when removing the controls from the handlebar.

Which you would want to know if doing a bar swap.

Definitely one of the best investments you can get for bike...should be standard w/purchase, but then HD would lose more $$$ from their money train...
