Since the GP was the first appearance of the 14mm wheel bolts, I'm curious if the owner's manual reflected the change, or if it still had the torque spec for the 12mm bolts.

From the GP Owner's Manual:

Tightening the Wheel Studs

Tightening Torque: 103 Nm or 103 ft lbs

Thanks. So, it looks like they used the correct spec for the GP's manual, then.
