brake and push the front suspension down,

position.

so the fork legs are in fixed position. Tighten
the fender and caliper brackets. See the

Make sure that all bolts are tightened in cor-
rect torque and that nothing restrains the
front fork when the suspension is beeing
compressed or extended. Check with the
Workshope manual of the motorbike.

Certain modifications can be necessary to
install the Öhlins front fork. It is vital that the
mounting instructions are carefully followed
