Engine mounting bolt torque spec

Does anyone know what the torque spec is for the bolt that mounts the engine to the chassis bracket? There is a spec in the manual that says 36.9 lbf ft, for the engine mounting bracket, so I don't think that is it. I want the spec for the bolt that holds the engine on. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The service manual shows the 'engine bearer on frame' bolts as M10 - 34.7 lbf ft, these would be the top bolts on the front y shaped bracket to the frame, all the engine mounting bolts to front and back are shown as 36.9 lbf ft. / 50 Nm, and 50 Nm to ft. # is like 36.878 so does that make sense, are you using the service manual or owners ??

I'm having to use the owners manual. I would love to get a service manual, but haven't been able to locate one. It makes sense. I just know that my other bike (R6) calls for the bolts to be much tighter. So that's why it didn't seem right to me.

Yes the R6 would be on a whole other scale ( I also have YZF600R & FZ600), I got my oem service manual from AOMC.com online, very useful when I did the valve adjustment...

Thanks. I appreciate it. I'll take a look at their website, and order one. I've been using an owners manual I downloaded from the internet. The dealer didn't have one when I bought the bike, and he supposedly ordered me one, but I haven't seen it yet.

I'm curious about that link as it takes me here?

It wasn't supposed to be a link it was interpreted that way by the forum software because I errantly stuck .com on the end of there initials, google this; 'Appalachian Offroad Motorcycle Company' ...
