Dragonslayer Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Okay, I am in the process of removing the forks to send them off and have them revalved and a heavier springut in for my FART ARSS. I have everything off the ( bars. brakes, wheel ) and I am curious if I need to remove the headlight and front nose cone to get to the lower bridge pinch bolt. I can get a box wrench onit but cannot get enough torque on it to break it loose. And then there is the question of how I will torque it back down upon reinstallation. Especially since I cannot get a ratchet wrench mush less a torque wrench up between the fairing and the lower triple tree. Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunedain Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Wheel and Bars are th eonly thing you must remove. Bottom pinch I think is a hex and should be fairly easy to get to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborneXX Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I didn't take the upper off to do mine. Get a 3/8" drive torque wrench, it fits right in there. Lower pinch bolts are 14 mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feelergaugephil Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 the fairing stays on, just un do the bolts and they should slide right out, if they don't, get a flat head screw driver and GENTLY prize open the slits (that clamp together) and they should just fall out!
