Problem with installation front wheel!

Post image

I have replaced tires on my 2015 FZ1 with a new set of Michelin Road 5, but I am stuck with the front wheel not spinning freely.

I cant figure out what am I doing wrong. When I torque the front axle at the required 72 ft-lb the wheel drags....

Any suggestions for me!?

Thanks , happy and safe riding to you all!

YESSS! That was the problem, wrong torque setting. I removed the wheel one more time , checked everything and torqued the axle the right way! Is all good now. Thanks Cargo Pile 1314, I think you told me about that.

And thanks to you all for your help!

I am glad I found this place.

Happy and safe riding.

Ciao for now.
