Front Sprocket Torque Spec.?

Does anyone know what the torque spec. is for the front sprocket drive chain nut? I'm doing the 16-Tooth sprocket mod, and the service manual doesn't say what it is.

There probably isn't a spec. for that kind of a nut.
Big bolt, big nut....bit torque. I don't think you're likely to strip it with hand power.
AND once on, it gets locked with the bent washer SO as long as it is "tight" it should be OK.

Hey. Its on page 3.7 under Engine section. It says that its 90 n/m or 65 lb/ft. Easy!
