Default Confirm Torque Specs for Forks/Linkage for 2018+ EC300?

Have my owners manual and found what I think is the upper and lower triple clamp torque specs, but would like to confirm before tightening them down. (See attached). Looking at the Upper and Lower flange torque specs.

I like to loosen and retorque my forks after each ride (drop ) to make sure everything is all aligned up correctly - torque the bolts to the correct torque is also important.

Also in the manual it says "Link", which I assume is linkage, and all the nuts are at 80nm - This sounds about right, but would like to confirm before bringing down the torque.

Thanks for sharing the workshop manual, but i can't find anything about the suspension in it, seems to be only engine related.

The settings for the M7 bolts are quite similar to what I use on my 2015 so I guess they are correct.

There is a torque table in the workshop manual for every bolt on the bike.

Bumping this up - I have my front wheel off and want to torque up the pinch bolts for the axel. Do you think it is the "foot fork" at 15nm?
