ok i have a repair book but i cant find it :dunno: , but anyway i took off my forks to repair the seals. but i was wondering if i need to use a torque wrench on the reassembly? if so on what and what are the torque specs?
thank you in advance
what comes up must come down

scratch

Nope, just make sure their tight. Except the fork caps, you don't want to overtorque those fine threads, I usually stop once their seated well enough. Axle nut? Tight enough to still allow the front wheel to spin freely.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?
