So....the difference of max torques suggested is 38 inch lbs. or 3 ft. lbs. additional torque.
The difference in clamping force 3120 ft. lbs - 2400 ft.lbs = 720ft.lbs / 3 ft. lbs = 240 ft.lbs more , which is only 2.4 % .
Bolt torques weather grade 5 or grade 8 are rated at only 80% of their value.
You will be ok at the higher torque given..........which is all just a pinch of **** !

Without getting into a pissing contest....Working on your bike and designing them are horses of a different color.
Mech, tech, backyard mech, Mongo turn bolt.
Engineers that design and figure out all the nuances for lack of a better word.
Just because it's same size bolt doesn't mean something didn't change between year models.

I know some engineers, and I know some arrogant engineers, I can easily see a new engineer stepping in beating his chest and changing a torque value to show his worth. Most all of our 1/4-20 bolts for covers in non-pressurized situations are 130 inch pounds. We have not been around as long as Harley but we have been around long enough to teach some of their snot nosed engineers on a budget how it's done. Just my arrogant 2 cents.
