Installation:
1. Install the side collars into the left and
right side wheel hub.
Position the front wheel between the
fork legs and insert the front axle shaft
from the left side, through the left fork
leg and wheel hub.
2. Align the index line (6) of the front axle
shaft with the surface (7) of fork leg.
3. Tighten the axle pinch bolts on the left
fork leg to the specified torque:
22 N·m (2.2 kgf·m, 16 lbf·ft)
4. Tighten the axle bolt to the specified
torque:
59 N·m (6.0 kgf·m, 44 lbf·ft)

5. Install the brake caliper onto the fork
leg. To avoid damaging the brake pads,
carefully fit the brake disc (8) between
the pads.
• When installing the brake caliper, be
carefull not to damage the sensor
and pulser ring. (NT700VA)
6. Install the caliper fixing bolts and
tighten to the specified torque:
31 N·m (3.2 kgf·m, 23 lbf·ft)
7. Operate the front brake and pump the
fork several times. Check for free wheel
rotation after the brake is released.
Recheck the wheel if the brake drags or
the wheel does not rotate freely.
8. If the clearances between each surface
of the brake disc and the brake bracket
(9) (not brake pads) are symmetrical,
follow next step.
If the clearances are not symmetrical,
loosen the left axle pinch bolts and pull
the left fork outward or push inward to
adjust the clearance. Then follow the
next step.
