that stock bolt gets torqued to 57.0 ft.lb.
the pinch bolt gets 16.5 ft.lb.

the pinch bolt is on the right side perpendicular to the frame bolt. my service manual says 65 and 16 respectively

my factory sevice manual is for the 97/98 gsx-r750, no idea if the 600 is the same..the pinch bolt is on the right side only..its directally in front of the bolt you'll be using in the frame slider, this smaller bolt has to be loosened first before taking the stock engine mounting bolt out, install your frame slider, tighten to 57.0 ft-lb THEN tighten the pinch bolt to 16.5ft-lb..

happy trails..

Yea that is what the book says.. 57ft lbs, but everyone of them that i hav done end up breaking if I try to go that high.. I stop at 50 ft lbs myself...
