Information requested
Can someone tell me the torque values of the
Front axel and the two bolts
Front fork clamp bolts upper and lower
Front caliper assembly bolts
And is it normal that the bolts are placed with grease? (whet torque)

Nobody…… who can help me. 
You do not say that you guys torque to a 1/4 turn before breaking. 
When I removed al the bolts there was grease on it (white grease), is that normal for the sb6 
Someone..........

No....
yes...
yes...
I'll go check the manual but confident there are no torque figures in there.
I'll also check the 6R manual.....It's a bit more helpful

Sorry, still no torque settings in my Bimota manuals so my advice is................
Stop tightening before the bolt breaks
I'll get my coat

Thanks Oily, 
Then I’ll use the normal torque settings belonging to the diameter of the bolt.
So, now I hope I can finish my bike in time.
Coat not needed.

What kind of information can be found in the manuals,…there are now torque values in it. What kind of use do the manuals have…
Ahaaa….  knees pads…

Can't you simplu torque it to the standard value for a bolt of that diameter ???
Those bolts are best to have some coppaslip on so you'll need to decrese it by a percentage.
Personally I 1/4" drive socket so I don't over tourque the bolts

The ONLY useful information in the SB6 manual has been plagiarised straight from the GSXR 1100 manual

Just installed the forks and torque the bolts, there was still enough grease on the thread so I did decrease 10% of the torque value.
Thanks guys.

Bimota says:
Axle Nut: 130NM (but I use 60NM)
Fork Quick release screw: 15NM
Paioli says
Fork Quick Release Screw, Upper and Lower Fork Clamp bolts: 22NM (I use 15NM)
Nothing mentioned for the caliper assembly bolts

Front swing cap bolts are 2,2 kgm + 2,5 kgm
The caliper bolts (M10) are 4.1 kgm + 4.4 kgm
According to Paioli RSU 46 & brembo manuals.
