Front Wheel Alignment

[nickg1977]

Whats the score if you unbolt the two left hand front fork pinch bolts as well as the right whilst trying to remove the front wheel?

In my temper at the Galfer discs not working right, I undid all four pinch bolts forgetting to only do the left. I applied torque and noted the quick release spinning before releasing and locked em back off again. Is that on a taper/thread or would it have just span around its own axis with no lateral movement?

Wish id never brought these discs, Soooooo pissed off!

Hi the l/h bush is a straight push in fit in the fork bottom so it will spin in the fork if the pinch bolts are slackened.Whats the problem with the Galfers??

Cheers - so I cant get it misaligned right? It just pushes straight in from the outside and goes up against an edge in the fork bottom right???

The issue with the Galfers is that there is a huge amount (I mean huge) of wheel wobble/shudder when I hit the brakes at speed. Had them on my R1 - no issues, but on this something is clearly not right.
