I put my wheel back on tonight and tightened down the axle before my brain registered this line in the manual, "Never tighten rear axle with swingarm brace removed" It was torqued down about 5 minutes before I broke it loose again and installed the swingarm brace. Then re torqued it.

Did I hurt anything?

Nope, your good! I did the same thing. It's done so you can put the fasteners that hold the brace in place in without any probs. No worries. Put it together and RIDE!!!
