Default Correct torque to resecure the seat bolts to the body?

Hi All,

I couldn't find the correct torque call out for the seat anchors (4 bolts that attach to the body).

I thought I read somewhere that they should be torqued to around 25Nm. Can someone confirm?

Thanks for your help!!

I mean, really, all of them would be good. If you use medium strength it's not hard to get off by hand and allows for vibration resistance. However, realistically you don't want to spend a week adding loctite. Most importantly make sure all the bolts are tight from the "factory." First I'd do the throttle speed adjust, if that moves in on you while you're cruising you'll be accidentally cruising a lot faster. Then I'd do shock top and bottom bolts, kick stand bolts, and engine mounting/hanger bolts. If your bike has brake adjustment bolts on the end of the cables I'd do those too.
