If you mean the Brake Caliper Bleed valve, it is 4 ft lbs. Same for front and back.

I think you want the fork bolt (manual reference). The torque is 16 ft lbs. And the manual says to use a new o-ring if the assembly is removed and to oil it with fork oil. YMMV.

Thanks all. I was putting on some braided brake lines, they called the bolt on the end of each line connecting to calipers and MC as "Oil line" I found the torque spec on the website.

I torqued the fork caps by "feel". Now I have nice bling gold caps to distract me. (not on my teeth)

Sorry about that HBFL. Peter or I would have been happy to list the torque but wasn’t sure what you wanted and thought you were maybe bleeding the brakes.

Just ask, we’ll get it to ya! Smile
