Re: [ST] front tire removal

["Rick & Joyce" <rnjwes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Beckie,
You'll need a 6mm allen for the axle pinch bolts, a 14mm socket for the
calipers and a 19mm allen for the ft. axle.  I made the 19mm using a 12mm X
30mm bolt (which has a 19mm head) and some nuts which I had the local
exhaust shop tack weld together.  With it, I can use a 19mm socket.  Going
back together, the torques are 20, 40 & 60nm respectively (14, 29 & 43
ft/lbs).  If you can't get the front end far enough off the ground, you'll
need a T30 torx for the bolts which secure the lower legs of the ft. fender.

Enjoy your trip,
