I'm having an issue with torquing down the front wheel axle nut to the required 63nm. The axle itself starts to spin inside the forks before it gets there. I've noticed a special tool that is supposed to align the notches with notches in the fork/hold it in place, but the BPF forks on the base model V4 do not have notches in them for that. I'm worried about buying the tool and it not even fitting or being useful because of this.
Anyone know any tricks to hold the axle still while applying torque to the nut? The Ducati workshop manual doesn't even mention the special tool, just says torque the nut down.
