I removed the reflectors on the front, so I had to remove the front brake bolts. Just wondering what the torque spec is for them on an 09 FZ6. Thx in advance

You should download the manual, it's all in there!

What's funny is when you torque these bolts (with the reflectors) it bends the reflector bracket into a pretzel! As such, mine are not parallel to the front forks!
Perhaps a washer under the head of the bolt would prevent it??
are the reflectors a US addition?

Yep, i think that all vehicels in the US need to have side reflector and front running lights.
This is why on the US FZ6 models they have very large turn signals, they act as signals and running lights.
I was under the impression that vehicles needed to have orange side reflectors in the front and red side reflectors in the back but i am not sure it still the case.
