Before remounting the front wheel, clean and grease the shaft seal rings A
and the bearing surface B of the distance bushings and mount the distance
bushings
To install the front wheel, lift it into the fork, position and mount the axle
shaft. Mount the collar nut 5, tighten the clamping screws 6 on the right
fork leg axle passage to prevent the axle shaft from turning and tighten the
collar nut to 40 Nm (30ft.lb).
Loosen the clamp screws on the right fork leg. Take the motorcycle down
from its stand. Press the front wheel brakes and push down on the fork a
few times vigorously so that the fork legs come into alignment.
Only after this has been accomplished, tighten the clamp screws on both
fork legs with 10 Nm(7 ft. lbs).
