I'm trying to figure out how to remove the front wheel on my 02 zx9, I recently hit a pot hole that bent my rim significantly. I've been on various web site but none seem to have specific information on the ZX9. My doubts are: there are 4 front axle pinch bolts (2 on each side) do I need to loossen them on both sides prior to loosening the front axle? Which axle side do I need to loosen first? there are 2 different bolt sizes one seems to be a 19mm and the other 22mm.

Is there a web page that addresses these questions?

By the way I bought the bike a few months ago, and finding accessories has been a nightmare, chroming has been costly and parts are rare, thinking about changing to a HAYA.

 

Mines a C1 model and on it remove the pinch bolts from both sides then using an inhex socket and breaker bar on both sides I undo the axle nut from the left fork, with draw the axle through the right fork, you may need to give the end of the axle a gentle tap from the left side to get it started, installation is the reverse, I torque up the nut then lock all four pinchbolts.
