[dsn_klr650] looking for a torque value and tire pressure

Gregory:
Front Axle Torque = 58 ft. lbs.
Tire Pressure for the stock Dunlops =
21 psi front,
21 psi rear with a load of 215 pounds or less. (In my dreams :>)
28 psi rear with loads greater than 215 pounds.
I would use these numbers only as a ballpark figure. They will change
depending on the type of terrain you are riding on.

Howdy. My manual hasn't arrived yet. What is the proper torque value for
the front axle on a '98 KLR?
What tire pressures should I be running for the front and rear tire? TIA.
