While rebuilding my 750E engine I replaced those bolts with brand new OEM parts. My torque wrench is a high end dial type that just came back from calibration. When tightening those bolts they would start to stretch before reaching the torque requirement in the manual so I just stopped tightening before they broke. Kawasaki went through a lot of trouble to make those bolts so I'm trusting they know what's best.
