what's the proper procedure for tightening up the steering stem nut? the SM says to lightly tighten the steering stem nut, then put the triple back on, followed by the 22mm stem bolt. after doing all this, then using the special spanner tool torque the steering stem nut to 11 ft-lbs. back off 1/4 to 1/2 turn, set the play in the steering. and then tighten up the 22mm stem bolt to spec 35 ft-lbs.
with the special tool you guys are using it seems you'd have to torque the stem nut to spec first, back off a bit, adjust the steering play, then install the triple and torque the bolt to spec. is that right?
