According to Haynes manual
Tighten filter as much as you can by hand or by number of turns once seal seated as by instructions on the packaging. As Kebab says this can result in filter being a pain to undo next change.
I to solve this bought a Yamaha filter wrench that you can tighten with a socket or the square off a half inch extention bar. The torque setting is 17nm.
filter wrench is only about a tenner and worth every penny when want to remove filter with no hassles
