Motorcycle front wheel alignment

[@ghassanalfarra8935]

I'm quite sure, after compressing the front yoke several times you should have slightly re-tightened the central fork yoke nut FIRST, just to pinch, then moving from down upwards re-tighten all other bolts EXCEPT the brake calipers, after that you freely spin the front wheel and front brake several times bringing it to a full stop, after that you tighten the brake caliper bolts with one hand WHILE firmly holding down the front brake lever with the other hand. By this method you both correctly alien the forks, and also the brake pistons and pads to the brake discs, thus avoiding uneven brake pad ware. 😉

Is the Insurance on a bike better than a car I’m trying to get my first vehicle and I already have both license

Hey I have a front wheel misalignment as well but in my case the wheel is really crooked to the left so idk if this can also work or do I need to do something different ir take it to a shop?

[@SUPSGARAGE]

honestly I would try it first before taking it to a shop brother

[@austinperkins1986]

C- Your sequences are off. (Top Yoke nut first and a few axle steps were off, like free side of axle after securing the nut or lock side. You neglected to set alignment of calipers to rotors.

Thank you for the advice brother

What size of socket for triple tree bolt

[@himbary]

Tried this multiple times, but I never loosened the stem nut. Will try again.

[@SUPSGARAGE]

definitely need to loosen that stem nut and if that don't work, more then likely you have something bent brother. Either way hope you get that bike going 😊👍

@@SUPSGARAGE thank you!

[@xqmars4157]

is this the same process on a r6?

[@SUPSGARAGE]

Yes the bolts might not all be the same but the procedure to do the alignment is brother

This is really a big deal for me

You need a good torque wrench 🔧

They are not that expensive either, cheaper than snapping parts or stripping threads by overtightening. For example on my bike, the pinch bolt is only 17 ft lbs and my calipers 25 ft lbs. Pretty light compared do how much you can do by hand
