1200 DVT Front Wheel Assembly

Discussion in 'Multistrada' started by BigAlan, Sep 9, 2018.

  1. Having had my wheels powder coated red is there a specific set of rules or assemble for the fro wheels back onto the bike?

    Disks are all fine and bearings fitted but I am getting conflicting ways of doing up the pinch bolts or spindle first etc, anybody know the correct procedure?

    Thanks.
     
  2. Spindle first.

    Careful with the pinch bolts, they don’t need a lot.
     
  3. I think

    Reassemble - tighten to the correct torque the 2 pinch bolts on the non nut leg tighten the nut to the correct torque.

    Slacken the first 2 pinch bolts.

    Tighten them again (you allowed axle to slide in if needed.

    Re torque nut.

    Slacken first 2 pinch bolts again.

    Bounce Front suspension (wheel on ground)

    lift weight of the wheel again.

    Tighten the pinch bolts in a 121 to correct torq on both legs.
