    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Mounting Front Wheel ?

Uhhh.....my Avon RR's have practicaly the same tread design, and they Called for the tread to be facing the Other way......?

But as long as the arrows on your tire point to the correct direction, you're fine.
 
Hi,

Yes, check the arrow on the sidewall for proper direction of rotation.

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
 
Arrow has been checked. A-OK. Tried installing from the right side, without axle, no success. Including liberal use of a block of wood and hammer. I am starting to think it might be the wrong bushing, from a recent shop tire change. My bushing sticks out both sides of the fork. Just pm'd svsooke to see if his does too.
 
I had the same problem.I fixed it but I can't seem to remember what I did to fix it:o
 
Man, I'm an idiot!! Have been wracking my brains trying to figure out what I did to create this situation. Occam's Razor !! The one thing I did differently was to leave the fender off, but reinstalled the brace. As the fender goes inside the brace, I didn't account for the thickness of the fender on both sides. Should have put washers in to compensate. Left the fender off for later painting. Just thought I would update in case somebody else has the same problem. I have not done this yet, but I am pretty sure this is the problem. Will post once job completed.
