FRONT WHEEL ASSEMBLY
If the front tyre is substituted, before assem-
bling the wheel it is necessary to balance the
wheel following the indications in page 88.
- Front wheel assembly (F4 S - FT - R - F4 MY13)
After having carried out the check on the parts of the
front wheel, accurately clean the wheel spindle and
assemble it from right to left. Tighten the screw ring of
the wheel spindle to the torque prescribed utilising the
special tool. Ensure that when the wheel is mounted
into place, the screw ring of the wheel spindle must be
on the left side of the motorcycle.
Apply grease only to the first threads.
Torque pressure: 38 ÷ 40 N·m
Special tool No. 8000B4412
Fit the wheel-spindle assembly on the front suspension
pins without pressing axially on the fork legs.
- Only for F4 - F4 R MY13 models (ABS version):
Measure with a thickness gauge the clearance
between the front speed sensor and the phonic wheel
on the left side of the front wheel.
Move the front wheel in axial direction until the above
clearance is equal to the value shown below, then fully
turn the front fork feet screws without tightening.
Front speed sensor / phonic wheel clearance
(before tightening the screws): 0.8 mm
The respect of the above value is necessary
to allow a correct working of the ABS system.

Position the wheel and insert the axle (1) from the right
side of the vehicle.
Ensure that the bushing on the left fork
foot is in place and in contact with the foot,
with the fixing screws slightly tightened in
order to prevent them from coming out
while inserting the axle.
Tighten the axle to the prescribed torque.
Apply grease only on the first threads and
on the cylindrical parts of the axle.
