Ok first things first... Fvk me! It should be around 230ft/lbs but I can't break it with a 24" or so 3/4" ratchet or t-slide. Does anyone own one in the Springs with the tools or know how? Bashed, I'm looking at you! I need to get the damn wheels off lol...
Also looking for 3/4" impact gun (electric) in the Springs if anyone could help me out? lol

PM sent. Don't worry. I can do it no problem.

Thanks! Replied
230 ft/lb??? That sounds incredibly high. I think my GSXR calls for somewhere around 75.
I was shocked too, I've heard that number just about everywhere.Originally Posted by CaneZach
Are you sure the rear isn't in Nm? 230 Nm is about 170 ft/lb
This.
The ducati I raced for years called for 130 lb/ft
The rear torque spec for the 1199 is the same as for the 1098
If you're really in doubt call an expert - (or the dealer you bought the bike from) . It would be possible to do damage by over torquing this nut (to you, the bike and the wheel.)
I called Boulder to get the number (220N/m). The shop manual isn't out yet. I think it was Newtons which would make sense putting it around 162ft/lbs. (If I'm not mistaken.). 230/220 did seem incredibly high...

i use 110 ft pounds and the holes in the retainer clip line right up. What is important is the grease on the threads and on the washer. (This is very important).

Thanks for the heads up on the grease.
