I do believe its 108ft-lbs.

I would be cautious of the listed 108 Ft. pounds listed in the Yamaha R1 repair manual. I torqued my rear axle to that spec. and was unable to remove the rear wheel. The axle just spun against the stop (on the sprocket side) until it was distroyed. I eneded up have to grind off that side of the axle so I could drive it through the wheel. I had to replace the axle,stop,washer and nut. Take the torque values with a grain of salt. Yamaha's repair manual calls for 72 ft. pounds on the six rear sprocket bolts (which are 10mm bolts). They call out 61 ft. pounds on the counter shaft sprocket. Seems that there are some inconsistancies.

108 ft/lb seems right, it's 109 ft/lb on the 06 and I use that all the time :thumbup

 

just looked in the 09 manual and it says 110 ft-lbs

 

Scott M. is right - not necessary to put that much torque on it.
