Reinstall
the filter assembly by pushing it down and forward into the airbox
making sure the lip of the filter cage is properly seated into its receptacle (figure
5). Reinstall the air filter cap and holding wire.
CAUTION:
Double check to insure that the filter is pushed in tight at the bottom
NOTE:
Make sure you change or clean your filter after each moto. We
recommend carrying multiple filters in your toolbox, one for each practice session
and moto.
Fork Oil Replacement
Requirements
19mm and 27mm combination wrench
6mm and 10mm hex key (Allen)
Flexible retrieving tool
10w fork oil (approximately 210cc per fork leg)
Disassembly
1. Remove the front wheel and front brake caliper.
2. Remove the fork legs from the triple clamps.
3. Perform the following on each fork leg:
a. Remove the fork cap from the fork tube using a 27mm wrench.
b. Lower the fork tube to expose the fork spring.
c. Pull the fork spring down from the fork cap to expose the damper rod lock
nut. Secure this nut using a 19mm wrench.
d. With a 19mm wrench on the damper rod nut, use a 27mm wrench to free
the fork cap from the damper rod.
e. Remove the 19mm wrench and allow the damper rod to fall into the damper
tube.
f. Remove the fork spring and spacer.
g. Invert the fork to allow the oil to drain. Pump the damper rod assembly
several times to help the oil drain.
Assembly
1. Completely collapse the outer fork tube onto the stanchion tube. Add enough
oil to the fork to fill the cartridge tube. Pump the damper rod up and down
slowly to help the assembly fill with oil.
2. Once the cartridge assembly is bled, continue to fill the fork with oil until it is
120mm +/- 2.5mm from the top of the fork.
3. Install the fork spring.
4. Use a flexible retrieving tool to pull the damper rod up through the fork spring.
Pull the fork spring down from the damper rod to expose the damper rod lock
nut. Secure this nut using a 19mm wrench.
5. Install the spacer and fork cap to the damper rod. Ensure that the fork cap is
completely threaded onto the damper rod before it makes contact with the lock
nut. Torque the damper rod lock nut to 15N-m (11ft-lb).
