Author Message   Samcol Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2009 - 03:03 pm:        Does anyone have the front and rear wheel tire change procedure as well as torque specs? Also what's the best way to jack the bike up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks   1_mike Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2009 - 03:21 pm:        Bout time to but the service manual? Mike   Spectrum Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2009 - 04:13 pm:        Front axle 39-41lbs Front axle pinch bolts (alternating) 20-22lbs Rear Axle (Initial) 23-27lbs Rear Axle (final) back out 270 degrees 48-52lbs Rear Axle pinch bolt 40-45lbs I also drop the front end after tightening, loosen slightly then bounce the forks several times and retorque.   Samcol Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2009 - 04:26 pm:        Awesome, thanks Spectrum   Crowley Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2009 - 04:53 pm:        What Spectrum suggests about bouncing the forks is very good practice. It gives the sliders an opportunity to run freely in the fork body.
