The service manuals from two model years have different torque values for the upper pinch bolt on each fork.
The '01 European manual shows 34 Nm = 25 ft lb. The '06 manual shows 26 Nm = 19 ft lb. Maybe something has changed on the '06.
What is the proper torque for my '04 FJR?
I recall that someone on the board broke their upper bracket when tightening this bolt.
