your front end...
:nono:
OK... lets try and keep this simple... I understand, and highly agree with your decision, to upgrade, front forks, etc on your bike...
BUT! Without knowing more info...like did you change out bearing outer races, etc... it is almost impossible to really give you a definitive answer... if you did... then, did you press it in? hammer ? etc etc etc... same with uppers bearings... moving on...
IF both outer races are/were fully seated, b4 you installed the triples.... then, there is a specific setting, as far as how much to tighten the nuts on the top triple clamps, as specified in the manual... which you can download. I dont wanna see anyone get hurt, or mess up their bike... so... you REALLY need to look up the proper setting, in the manual... it wont take you too long, and could save your life!
"FEELS too tight"... etc... tells me, you have no idea, if you are even close, and, this is a critical point, in your front end. PLEASE, for your sake... at least download the manual, and buy, beg or borrow a torque wrench, proper tools, etc, before you call the job finished and a done deal or ask someone to help.... PLEASE! Also... understand, I am not trying to be a smartazz... I am hoping to help keep you alive, and riding! Good luck, and, I know there are many people on here, who can and will help you out. Dont be afraid to ask...
