Is that a turbocharged XJR?I used this video after I dropped the bike.
Use the serachbox above and type: useful torque figures. Its’s the 4th post that appears.Anyone know the triple-clamp stem and the axle torques? Might as well do everything right.
Also, after that video, I've now seen two variations on this process. Another one said to lock the front brakes before bringing the weight of the bike down onto the front wheel, and keeping them locked while working the fork. Obviously that can't be done if the front calipers are loosened up. Is that step more of a personal preference, or is there a justification for loosening up the calipers? To my mind, keeping the calipers tight, and holding the brakes, means you can get more power into pumping the forks to line everything up, but on the other hand, holding the brakes also reduces the amount of twist the fork legs can experience, because even with the axle loosened, the front wheel will still hold a set position relative to the fork lowers.
Oldrider, you do have front end alignment tools. I think I saw them in your shop on the shelf next to the muffler bearing synchronizer and blinker fluid.What are these proper tools you speak of?
With no fairing.yes,
