Assumption:

You're using Yamaha new bolts (as you should) and stock rods honed from finest chocolate (which you probably shouldn't), not after-market items.

Then:

For the 5VY (2004-6) I perform the following:

Careful finger tight assembly, usual checks, then tighten steadily and carefully to 20 Nm. Bolts are then further tightened by 150 degrees - gauged with a carefully marked CD with the socket drive through the middle of it.

What model of R1?

5vy (04-06) are... 20Nm + 150degrees, or in old money... 14ft.lb+150degrees (notes indicate oiled threads)
