Skip to 4:05 if your looking to remove the tire only!
I've told you this before on another video, but I just want to say THANK YOU SOOO MUCH again for leaving these videos up of your 636. I've learned a lot about my 2016 636 thanks to you. I appreciate it so much. Thank you!!
Your very welcome!
That is smart. How come I couldn’t think of that. I’ve been trying to remove the front wheel all day without the 22mm axle tool. Thank u so much.
You are a gentleman and a scholar. And all your videos will be found by our ancestors and aliens in the far future and be archived as digital archeological findings where they will get Nobel peace prizes for preserving your creations. You just don’t know the magnitude of your work yet lol. Thank you!
Thank you! But wouldn't aliens have some sort of mind ability to just wish the parts off the bike...that probably flys like somethin off starwars😁
You can use the spark plug socket backwards and use a short extension to loosen the bold.
Lol all these years I never though of that. Thank you!!!
thank you sooo much for these DIY vids 👍
No problem, and thank you for watching! Sadly I am working on the last ZX6-R how to video.
Thanks for the upload. Some idiot stole my bike and now it's in my house all banged up. I removed ALMOST everything and so now I have to do a fork job and replace the seals and this helped with a few steps of the process so thanks! Be sure to check out my channel in the future for the put together
Awesome. I went threw the forks also but didn't do a video. They aren't that bad after doing it.
Piston Slap okay maybe you can help me out. You know the red part of the fork at the top. After you unscrew that is that took from Kawasaki necessary to take out the spring? Or did you get around that ? If you don't understand what I mean I can post a video.
Calvin C so the red fork cap I purchased a tool from.race tech for it. just under the cap is another internal nut that you need a special to get it loose. it can be purchased from race tech also. I believe they are all around 50 dollars. There is a channel "Dave moss" he did a video on rebuilding the showa BPF that has great explanations on how to.
ok, so how did you remove the brake lines from the left/right clamp? did you just wiggle it out or something?
JJ G yes, they are attached to tue finder via the c shaped clip. hust push them or wiggle them out
I am removing my front axle RIGHT NOW, and felt a tangible sense of dread watching that wrench bend at around 7:00. I guess I need to use more force...
What brand of headlift are you using? The vortex front tree stand smashes the nose on my 2020 zx6r
Its another name. I got it used. If.i hade to guess I would think it's a track side. Also mine was close or rubbed the nose a little.
how's the forks resting on the stand, I can't see it,,,
Its a head stand. Its supported by the lower triple clamp
What size nut and bolt did you use to takeoff the front axle❓
7/8 or a 22mm
Hey what pin are you using on the triple tree stand? The opening seems to be much larger than the standard pins that come with my kit.
I had to order one when I got my sand. I will measure it here in a hour when I get back to the house
@@PistonSlap Appreciate it!
@@YurvanGor 27mm or a #15 from pitbull
What size bolt do u use
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you I had to go out and measure it and then change it over to metric and then check something else to make sure it was right so the head of the bolts are 7/8 or 22 mm hope that helps
Very good
Flavio dePaula thank you! Hope it will help someone.
Next video do a rotor replacement please
I wont be able to on the 636. I sold it and it ended up getting totaled out at the old Miller racetrack
I have removed the front fender without removing the front tire. I did removed the brake calipers.
Quang Lam how did you get the brake line retainers around the fork?
Piston Slap I just flex the fender after removing the brake lines from the holder. I did it when I did the brake job, replacing the pads. I have a pic of it.
I didn't even think of that. My luck the fender wpuld have blown up into a million parts

The bike looks like shit without the fender. The wheels looks tiny.
Just use a 13/16 spark plug socket but put it on the extension backwards. Boom Axle socket
A Thursday video??? Now you're competing with my time slot dude! lol ;p
I tried to push it out on Wednesday but I spelled allen wrench (alen) So i deleted the video off you tube. went threw and corrected it then finished it just a while ago. On a side note, I kinda wish Sony had a spell check for people like me!
hehe, spell check is HUGE!
I wish I had it! Hows your jacket treating you? I had to open all the vents yesterday...It was HOT!
The Jacket, yes! I rode yesterday and it wasn't bad at all. It was about 86 degrees at around 3pm in the afternoon and with the vents open I was good, even when stopped. I was pleasantly surprised :) I don't think I'll be wearing it in 95 though unfortunately. I'm going to have to swtich to the Mesh in that kind of heat.
Yeah I believe it was yesterday or the day before..I seen 97 around 530pm. Sitting at the Eagle and Fairview light. I thought I was going to melt!
