Rear sprock is 60Nm on the 850's, not had a problem with that. So 69Nm for the 900 sounds about right.

I have noticed however that the bolts/screws on my 15y.old mkI are in general much better quality than on my 9y.old mkII...perhaps the 900 is just inline with the use of ever cheaper parts and fasteners!

Some of the torque settings are just not attainable (or neccessary), like the 64Nm on the lower reat shock mounting bolt, have tried on both mine and Wicky's bikes with brand new Yam bolts and couldn't get near that before the BOLT thread stripped!

I always double check any suspect torques with the workshop manual...BEWARE there are torque spec errors in both Haynes and Workshop.

Cheers
