front wheel maintenance ?? need to prop up front wheel etc

[valleyboy]

Does anyone know how do do this ??

The speedo is not telling me how fast Im going forward.. it works going backwards, but wont tell me squat going forward! I can get a whopping 2 MPH pushing myself back the drive lol

I think it needs replacing, but parts take forever to arrive at the garage etc.. so I would like to see if a clean up would do any good to it.. if only for a few days of knowing how fat Im going... motorway speeds aint a problem, as at 5.5K in 6th, it does approx 70 MPH, and at 6K in 6th, 80 etc... but the 30 MPH speed cameras wont care about that ! hehehe

So I need to know if I can get a stand or something to take the front wheel off, and have a looksee :)

cheers

You can get a paddock stand, but you can also use a rear paddock stand and jack up from under the engine to lift the front off the ground.

i had to use a trolly jack under the engine (with some wood)and when i had the speedo drive thing out i lowerd the jack and rested the forks on the floor.
still had to get a new speedo drive the "fan blade shape things" were broken
