Front wheel fit

#1 PostAuthor: Pinhead » Mon Jan 26, 2015 7:05 pm

Hi all
I cant find a torque setting for the front axle nut
I tried 60 pounds it lock up the axle
I have looked in the clymer manual and it does not say anything about torquing the axle nuts
All is says for the 900 is to reassemble the hub In the reverse order

Are you tightening the fork leg bottom clamps first? you should be,something wrong if you are locking the wheel up.Have you got correct spacers in?
