    What is the rear-axle castellated nut torque spec for my new-to-me, chain drive '97 Seca II?

    Been searching for it.

    On here I found 70-75ft-lbs for some other bike (shaft drive?). My other bike is 80ft lbs.

    I'll go to 70ft lbs for now unless someone has the correct #...

    The 550s, also chain drive (and I suspect the same axle) call for 76 ft/lb.

    70 won't come loose either. Use a new cotter pin.
