The Haynes manual states "TIMING BELT PULLY BOLTS 12mm is 7-8 KGF M or 51-58 LBF F"

Until it yields, then back off a quarter turn lol. I looked in my Honda manual but did not see it listed so go with the above number.

Re: Tming Belt tensioner bolt Torque gl1000
was looking for the belt tightner bolt tension torque not the timing belt pulley bolt torque..
Called the honda dealer and yes up to 58 flbs for the pulley bolts.. but they did not have torque specs for the belt tension idler wheel bolts.
