Showa Fork torques

1000SS, - can someone oblige with the bolt torques of the top clamp, lower clamp & axle pinch-bolts please.?

I'm not sure how many other models share the same fork, 43mm Showa.

I have never used a torque wrench for these just tightened them about the same as a spark plug, never had an issue.

I believe the Forks from the ST series are very similar, so as a guide here are those figures:

Tables never work so a * shows the main Nm figure

Category Component Torque (Nm) Torque (inch pounds) Torque (foot pounds) Torque Wrench

Frame Bottom Yoke Screw 20* 177 15 Medium M8 X 1.25 Shell Retinax HDX2 1-2-1 Sequence

Frame Top Yoke Bolt 23* 204 17 Medium M8 X 1.25 Shell Retinax HDX2

Frame Fork Bottom End Bolt 19* 168 14 Medium M8 X 1.25 Shell Retinax HDX2 1-2-1 Sequence
