VN900 Loose Front Tire Axle

Check your front wheel axle for tightness.....have about 5000 km on mine and locknut was just finger tight.

That's why one of the service items in the 600mile/1000km service is to check torque on all fasteners.

If you paid the dealer for this service, firmly inquire as to why it was apparently not done.

Thats why I'll never trust the service guys.
