Default Wheel Removal on ST4S


> For a friend: This probably sounds bad but how do you remove the Front and rear wheels on an ST4S? I have done it many times on my 900ss and M750
> but have never dealt with hollow axles. It appears straight forward but what size sockets are needed and soforth.

Thanks, Don

Default Re: Wheel Removal on ST4S (Sogno)

It should be a 28mm for the front, and a 30mm for the back.

Try to get sockets that don't have a big 'taper' or radius on the end, as the nuts are shallow and thin walled, you need all the engagement you can get. You can grind a bit off the end of the socket to improve that.

Otherwise, it's the same deal as removing the wheels on your M or SS.

I've found the rear is easier to install if the caliper is removed, the caliper bracket is enough of a struggle by itself.
