Rear sprocket nuts (torque value?)

Rear sprocket nuts (torque value?)
A question for all of you guy's who have fitted a new rear sprocket.
Have you tightened the 'Final driven sprocket nuts' to the recommended torque value of 108 N-m (80 lbf-ft) as stated in the Haynes workshop manual and the Kamware.com site?
The reason I ask is that, that torque value seems to be rather high to me and was wondering if that was a mistake?
Cheers,
Chris.

Ive done the 80lbs... they'll hold it. I recommend putting the nuts on lightly, put the wheel on the bike and hold it with the rear brake, or put the bike weight down on it when tightening... it's a B**CH to hold the wheel and tighten unless someone is helping.

Reviving and old thread...
My torque wrench was way out of calibration and I damaged one of the threads just enough that the new nut won't start nicely. Does anyone know what the bolt is so that I can get the proper metric dye for it? I don't have a metric one, and I don't want to get a set w/o the right threads.

Took a flange nut to lowes and went through their metric bolts. It's a 12-1.25 thread. Didn't help me since I cannot find a die that size, but I see that wheel studs have a seperate part number. I'll just replace the wheel stud.
