Here are the listed torque specifications form the 2015-2016 Service Manual for Bonneville, Bonneville SE, Bonneville T100, Thruxton and Scrambler. I think it's ridiculous that we should have to pay $7.50/hr to find this information from Triumph so here it is. There are some that refer to other sections of the manual. When I have time I will try and write out all of the specs for those sections. If I don't, try messaging me or responding to this thread and I'll do my best to get back to you.

Appreciate all the data. I just pulled the cams to replace a couple shims on my 2007. Difficult time to remove the cap bolts and was going to try and avoid that problem next time by lubricating the threads or anti-sieze compound. Your post lists oil so I'll try that. Pretty sure the original install skipped that in 2007.
