On the CB 550 it was 16-20 ft lbs. The nuts also have a lock collar that was bent up around the nut to stop any movement.
If your working from a Honda FSM then there isn’t normally specs for torque in the individual sections. You will find the master specs together at the beginning of the shop manual. Where the frame/engine/misc torque specs are individually listed on a couple of pages.

Is this normal because of the cush drive? Or because it's off the bike and not fastened to the swing arm?  video attached.

both...with all correct spacers in place and axle nut tight, it can't wobble like that anymore
If it works good, it looks good...
