6. Pour the recommended fork oil (page 89) into
the outer tube (3).
Right Fork Oil Capacity:
Approximately 0.2 US oz (7 cm
3
) of fork oil
remains after draining.
This amount must be noted when filling to the
standard oil capacity.
7. Check that the O-ring (9) on the fork damper
(4) is in good condition. Apply the
recommended fork oil to the O-ring.
Temporarily install the fork damper to the
outer tube (3).
After installing the fork leg (page 133), tighten
the fork damper to the specified torque using a
lock nut wrench:
Actual:
56 lbf·ft (76 N·m, 7.7 kgf·m)
Torque wrench scale reading:
51 lbf·ft (69 N·m, 7.0 kgf·m), using a 20 in
(50 cm) long deflecting beam type torque
wrench.
When using the lock nut wrench, use a 20 in (50
cm) long deflecting beam type torque wrench with
a lock nut wrench. The lock nut wrench increases
the torque wrench’s leverage, so the torque wrench
reading will be less than the torque actually applied
to the fork damper.
8. Clean the threads of the fork protector socket
bolts (1) and axle holder thoroughly.
Apply locking agent to the bolt threads.
Install the fork protector (2) and fork protector
socket bolts.
Tighten the fork protector socket bolts to the
specified torque:
5.2 lbf·ft (7 N·m, 0.7 kgf·m)
