STEERING and FRONT SUSPENSION
Installation
1. Slide the fork column up into the head
tube until the lower-bearing collar (Figure
13) rests against the lower bearing (
Figure
12
).
2. Install the upper bearing and the han-
dlebar stem as described in this chapter.
3. Install the front wheel.
4. Carefully slide the front brake caliper
onto the brake disc so the disc does not
mar the brake pads. Apply Loctite 242 to
the threads of caliper mounting bolts (A,
Figure 10
), and evenly tighten the bolts.
Torque the caliper mounting bolts to the
specification in Table 5.
5. Install the handlebar (this chapter).
8. Visually inspect the seal (B,
Figure 11
)
and the cone on the upper-bearing collar
(C) for nicks or other damage.
9. Inspect the lower bearing in the head
tube (
Figure 12
). Note that the bevel on
the lower-bearing inner race faces down,
away from the head tube. A new bearing
must be installed with the same orienta-
tion.
10. Inspect the cone of the lower-bearing
collar (
Figure 13
).
11. If either bearing is faulty, replace both
bearings, the upper-bearing collar (C,
Figure 11
) and the lower-bearing collar
(
Figure 13
) as a set.
