Put axle and spacers in torque axle nut to specs then torque pinch bolts

Probably where I went wrong.

I just hand tightened the axle nut.

I didn't even notice this until after my last trackday.

I'm guessing this is why my forks have a little sticktion on the way down.

you should see the method in the owners manual for a R6.  like reading something from a lawyer. 

 

they have you torque the nut to a certain spec then tighten the pinch bolt then loosen the nut and tap the fork with a mallet till it's flush then tighten  the nut to the final spec or some shit like that. 

it's crazy.
