If you wan't to go by the book but it really isn't necessary. Same thing whit the flywheel bolt. You can try it after you tighten whit the impact wrench whit the moment wrench and you'll see it is tight enough. If you have the motor in the frame you can put the gear on and hold the rear brake the prevent it from moving. I actually use moment wrench on all bolts that have specified torque value but i know many 954:s that have old clutch lock nut that is torqued whit impact wrench and they seem to work fine.

And I'll be honest - I don't torque wrench that nut - I impact wrench it. I have done it multiple times - there's no difference in clutch feel or performance whatsoever as it doesn't affect the plates. It just keeps the basket on the main shaft correctly.
Cam towers, rods, mains (those stretch bolts), clutch springs, the case, head bolts - I follow the torque values/tightening procedures religiously. On other stuff though... can't say that I do.

I got my parts yesterday and got my bike back together. I will post the write up in the "how to" section in a few days. The job was easier than I expected. It's just a detailed job where you must take your time to ensure its done correctly.
