    Triple tree bolt torque spec

    Whats up everyone! happy holidays! Got a quick question...

    What are the torque specs on the triple tree clamp; the bolts that hold the fork tubes?

            There’s a factory service manual or Clymers or Haynes book in pdf form ready for download for nearly every every model of GS on BikeCliffs Website. All torque specs are in the book. No reason not to have this resource at hand all the time. If you’re not seeing signatures, here’s the link. https://gsarchive.bwringer.com

              Exactly.

              I would not use some generic torque spec table, get the factory Suzuki recommended torques out of the service manual for your bike.
