this process to avoid any unnecessary damage to the forks or brake caliper.
4. After repair, reverse the above mentioned process for installation. Be sure that the axle
retention washers are seated properly in their holes before you tighten both front axle nuts.
REAR WHEEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: Pay special attention to washers, spacers, and their placement on the axle.
