Front wheel stand and the ABS sensor. I fabed up a small stub, smaller than the last digit of your little finger, that goes into the bottom of the fork. Works great and I don't have to worry about the sensor any more.
@sportbiketrackgear6 жыл бұрын
That's a good idea. There are enough ABS bikes now that both Pit Bull and Woodcraft have addressed this issue and made stands that accommodate the speed sensor up front. Definitely do not want to damage these things, you lose all the electronics if the sensor goes down. - Van

@sportbiketrackgear9 жыл бұрын
Matt Wilcox I do not feel it is needed. Before I started STG I was a tech at a Cadillac dealer for many years and acquired a feel for proper torque. That said there are situations where I will absolutely use the torque wrench, these would typically be internal engine work. - Van
@JA-ni6dz9 жыл бұрын
See I was right :D
@FMX6469 жыл бұрын
Matt Wilcox My rule of thumb is that if it experiences extreme heat, torque it to spec. Expansion and contraction is a hell of a thing. If you over torque something, and then heat expands it, you will not be happy, it could crack cases, and snap bolts. Also, when it expands and contracts over and over, it gets loose too. A lot of torque specs are not there to prevent rattling loose, its to prevent heat related stress fractures. I've learned this the hard way. I tend to always torque to spec now. It's there for a reason.

I love the idea of a captured spacer. I see almost everyone drop them on the ground, pick them up and reinstall them. This is frequent at the track with all the tire changes. My mechanic background makes me cringe while visualizing grains of sand grinding at their bearings. A no brainer, why didn't the big 4 bike manufacturers start this many years ago?

Thanks for the question! It isn't intended to lower the resistance it is specifically to make changing the wheels/tire easier. When you are doing a lot of tire changes, at the race track for example, it can be easy to lose the OEM spacers and these prevent that from happening.
