Rear tyre changed.

Changed the rear tyre today, a very easy job apart from torqueing up the wheel. Getting the wheel off was simple, old tyre was easy to get off, new tyre almost fell onto the wheel and it balanced up straight away. But what a job fitting the wheel, trying to torque it up was a real pita by myself as I couldn't stop the wheel rotating. I'll have to get Mrs Mick on it tomorrow. How does anyone else get theirs tightened? Torque setting seems high as my speed triple only needs 148nm, monster almost 100nm more.
