Removing Front Tire
Ok how do youguys take the front wheel and tire off. I have an 07 and it has two hex's that are like 23 mm. I can not find a wrench that size or a head of a bolt that size to make my own wrench.

did you try flipping a spark plug socket ? when you loosen the the pinch bolts, the axle should be free enough to spin out with a smaller but close size hex.

Cycle Gear for the correct tool but the sparkplug socket with the hex works just as well. You'll need a 3 inch extension to insert in the wrong side of the sparkplug socket. Just loosen the RH side (Axle bolt head side)fork pinch bolts and then remove the axle.

if you have it handy, take a pic of the reversed socket with the extension in it so when it comes up again, well have a pic. been meaning to do it but never got around to it.
