Does anyone have a value for the torque on the shock to swingarm bolt nut?

I saw a reference to that torque in another post but it seemed high to me since it seems that there would be some twisting (not much) as the rear moves around.

Thanks.

The bushings take the twisting action.

Remember a similar torque spec holds your wheels on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
