M750 Problem Removing Front Wheel

motomartin11 · 01-10-2021, 06:48 PM

I'm preparing to have my MY96 forks rebuilt but can't remove the front wheel!
The bush which the spindle threads into at the the bottom of the left fork bottom is turning when I try to undo it .Help / advice needed please.

Don’t slacken the the two Allen bolts on that side keep the nipped up.

Thanks. I was making the mistake of nipping both up too tight. The trick is to leave the far one which will retain the bush but undo the other one. Yesterday I tried both fully tightened but needed to back off the far one. All sorted now thanks
