Well its an 8mm which Kaw says takes 10-13.5 ft/lbs. The 900 manual says 12ft/lbs (drifter manual doesn't list) and  I've also read 14ft/lbs(perhaps nomad). I'd go with 12 and check it after 50-60 miles.  I think we have specs listed over in the mods/tips. Will add to my research list list.

I noticed that the nuts holding the exhaust on were loose, I checked the service manual and I am not certain of the torque specs....pipes are road house doollies
Does anyone know the specs for tightening the nuts on the exhaust
Thanks
