It looks like I need to buy new tools, Ive got plenty of tools to work on my car but it seems this bike is a whole new ball game.

What are all the specs for removing the front and rear wheel?

Front Bolt size?
Front Hex size?
Front Fork Hex size?

Rear Bolt Size?

Also, I bought the bike used and some fairing hex are stripped, whats the best way to take them out?

Thanks

Ok, there is no bolt on the front wheel, so just the hex size please?

Need to order some new tools ASAP because I need to do some general maintanance on the bike.

 

Call the dealer they'll know. I had to cause I didn't have anything big enough. I think off the top of my head the rear hex is 17mm and the front is 24mm

 

Do you have a dremel? To get the fairing screws out use a dremel with a cut wheel and just cut a line into it. You can use a flathead then to pull it out.

For wheel tools check out Motion Pro for a front wheel hex tool.....T-6 Hex Axle tool. It has 4 sizes on it. 17, 19, 22 and 24mm. I'm pretty sure the front wheel is 24mm. There are also 2 versions of this. A superlight one and a steel one. I'd get the steel one since you can't torque the aluminum (superlight) is only rated up to 90 ft lbs

 

You can also save some money and just get a nut and 2 bolts that are the same size. I was going to do that but my dad (car mechanic) bought the 24mm hex socket so I didn't end up doing that...

 

Check on ebay. I got one that has all 4 sizes for the front axles of most bikes for $20 shipped. Works great.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Motor...QQcmdZViewItem
