Starting @ 6:10 - 6:35 are you sure that the pinch bolts on the same side of the axle nut must be tightened and torqued down first? I've always done the opposite side first, followed by torquing down the axle, then finish off with tightening / torquing down pinch bolts at the axle nut side
Great work & super messy. I usually bounce the front end to get the forks seated before doing up the fork leg pinch bolts. Gotta make sure you don’t snap the fork lowers🤙
For the Germans and Italians and the Japanese have different ideas of centering their brake calipers. Most have dowels to do that, it looks like the Ducati does not…
Hey Devil Dog, where did you get the torque value for the pinch bolts? I'm showing 19 NM not 10NM on my cheat sheet. Do you have a link for your source? I swear to God....Ducati is the biggest PITA when it comes to getting accurate torque values for fasteners. They act like it is some state secret. Otherwise, great video. Thanks.
Rembo please double check the torque on those pinch bolts. I have a 19 N meter stamped right on my caliper bracket. And that sounds more like it. 14 foot pounds please check it thank you
@@RemboUSMC it pains me to have to correct you on this one Rembo. You are my go to for all things Pikes Peak. I just checked with the dealership. The spec sheet is incorrect. the correct torque figures for an Olins suspension fork with an 8 mm bolt is 19 Nm. In fact they stamped it on the fork just to make sure everyone knew. 10 NM is for 6 mm threaded pinch bolts
I’m not a fan of leaving the front tire, suspended in the air like that. It makes it way harder to push the axle through. Rather use a jack under the front of the engine to precisely place the wheel and fork and the proper position so that the axle slides in and out. Or, pitbull, makes a “tire jack” that actually lines the tire up for doing such work.
I’m doing a 2003 749s First thing only on the axle nut side , do I have a spacer. And the axle has a small half circle cut into the end that seems to line up with a half circle cut into the Showa forks And holes in the axle that line up and down with the center of the fork tubes Geezzus my Yamaha’s are so simple it feels like cheating, now So I’m guessing the half circle ⭕️ on the axle/fork must line up And the spacer on axle nut side, spaces the tire and left side fork tube I’m going to tighten the axle nut side pinch bolts To torque the axle nut to 63 nm Loosen the pinch bolts Get the calipers in place with the Allen nuts hand snug tight Then return the bike to the ground, push compress the forks Raise the front by the triple tree with a ratchet tie down Spin the tire Lower the front down compress the forks Again lift the front with a ratchet tie down hooked to the triple tree and a rafter in the barn Then tighten the caliper to 45nm Spin the wheel If it spins freely Tighten the pinch bolts to 10nm Maybe put a little blue lock tight on them ??

Do you change out your own front wheel when you get tires changed, etc?
Yes, I change it in my own hobby workshop.
@@NC35Race make a video.
Thanks, it’s been more than a decade since I last decided I had time to change my own tires. This video was a great refresher.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the video💪👍
No problem 👍
Sure you're supposed to do opposite side pinch bolts first.
Not with this setup. Some other bikes, yes
I disagree.
He does the wrong side punch bolts up first. Should be the axle side not the nut side
How is it on the v4s? Nut or axle side first?
@@injector90always axle side first

I agree, that's how I've always done it.
Exactly👍
Of course you’re right, the pinch bolts on the right side will hold the axle in place for you to torque up the big nut
It'd be nice if you put all the torque specs in the description.
I probably will do that in the future.

Dave Moss has a great video out explaining this technique....ua-cam.com/video/qTve7M4zOlE/v-deo.html
Great tip!
I enjoy everything that you do!👍
I appreciate that!
@@RemboUSMC keep up with great job!👍
You should put painters tape on the rim behind the brakes to protect the rim from getting scratched when removing the brakes.
Great idea
Great help brilliant.👏👌👍
Glad you think so!
Multiple torque clicks means you are now over torque. Set it click once thats it.
Again thank you. I think I need to remove my front wheel to remove my LHF caliper to change pads on my ‘23 MTS PP.
Glad it helped

The dealer printed out all of the torque values for me for literally every single bolt. The problem is matching up the name with the exact bolt
Did you grease the whole axle as well or only the thread? Can i use mos2 grease or ceramicgrease?
Entire axle
they do sell a spacer so you can get rid of that reflector mounts you can get a nice red one
Red spacer?
@@RemboUSMC yes
Rembo please double check the torque on those pinch bolts. I have a 19 N meter stamped right on my caliper bracket. And that sounds more like it. 14 foot pounds please check it thank you
I already did twice with the dealer and the spec sheet they printed for me. It is motorcycle model specific.

So why go way past 63nm... 3 more times lol ????
OCD
@@RemboUSMC torqued it more like ~65, then ~69, then 70ish.... whatever man, you do you ;)

First thing only on the axle nut side , do I have a spacer.

And holes in the axle that line up and down with the center of the fork tubes
Geezzus my Yamaha’s are so simple it feels like cheating, now
So I’m guessing the half circle ⭕️ on the axle/fork must line up
And the spacer on axle nut side, spaces the tire and left side fork tube
I’m going to tighten the axle nut side pinch bolts
To torque the axle nut to 63 nm
Loosen the pinch bolts
Get the calipers in place with the Allen nuts hand snug tight
Then return the bike to the ground, push compress the forks
Raise the front by the triple tree with a ratchet tie down
Spin the tire
Lower the front down compress the forks
Again lift the front with a ratchet tie down hooked to the triple tree and a rafter in the barn
Then tighten the caliper to 45nm
Spin the wheel
If it spins freely
Tighten the pinch bolts to 10nm
Maybe put a little blue lock tight on them ??
