New 2016 GSX-r 750 owner here. Pic for reference (after Akra exhaust install).
I need new tires and was going to remove front and rear wheel myself
Pretty straightforward like most sport bikes, or are there any quirks? One specific Q: on the 2016 750, there is a large ALLEN bolt on the right-hand fork, and a 27mm NUT on the left-hand side. I've seen videos where they ONLY use a 27mm socket to undo the nut.... -- but do you not also need a gigantic Allen key to hold the allen (axle) bolt head of the axle in place when re-tightening the axle nut to spec torque?! Or is that accomplished by keeping the two 10mm pinch bolts tight in place on the allen-head side?
PS: I understand there is a gixxer 750 Service Manual on this site for the 2011-16 model years, but I do not have acccess. Can anyone send me a PM with a direct link / file copy? thanks!
