assuming its an XB you have


rear spindle is 25Ft lbs, slacken, then 50 Ft Lbs. the pinch bolt is 40 Ft Lbs.

its also easier to take the brake caliper off, and the belt tensioner.

the caliper bolts are 25Ft Lbs, the tensioner nuts are 35Ft Lbs

Have a look in the How To, it tells you everything you need to know.

viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1329

Please will people point to this section instead of re-inventing the wheel each time. If you don't like the How To section, tell me what is wrong with it and we will change it...

cheers for all the help.
it all went a bit tits up got my wheel back from the garage fitted it to the bike went to spin the wheel and discovered that they have buckled my break disc!!!
so ive now gotta wait for thames valley harley davidson to pick the bike up on thursday and wait till they can repair it.
hopefully its covered under warrenty might not be because i took the wheel off myself.

I really don't think you can expect TVHD to replace your disc if someone else has damaged it :?

ill just get them to repair it then give the bill to the tyre garage.
to be honest i really dont expect them to do it for free but there is allways hope.

I suspect that they may argue, quite rightly too, that a Warranty covers faulty parts rather than parts that have been damaged by clumsy tyre fitters ;)
