 | ohlins R&T's installed, but have a question before I can ride her........(954) Got the Ohlins R&T forks installed tonight, easy enough....just got a little confusing when it came to centering the front wheel, the wheels spacers, and the new axle bolt. what is the exact process? I do have the install instructions. seems like the left side(as your sitting on the bike) axle shoulder extends into/between the fork legs, actually becoming a spacer itself. On the right side the stock spacer is replaced with the provided ohlins spacer, which is then butted up against a sleeve that is installed in the right fork leg axle hole, ultimately providing a shoulder for the ohlins spacer to butt up against. Finally, the axle shoulders that fit inside either side of the fork leg holes are recessed about 3/8" respectively. Lastly, ohlins provides an aluminum axle bolt that replaces the factory steel bolt, do I torque this bolt to the same 78 Nm? does this sound right?

| Re: ohlins R&T's installed, but have a question before I can ride her........(954) just finished installing the DK link and Ohlins rear shock, one thing I can say for sure, the Ohlins suspension has a taller ride height, maybe it will settle some over time, also the DK link is a very close to my Arata high mount exhaust, may need to do a little clearancing.........looking forward to riding this thing tomorrow! |
