Hello all! I plan to be here a lot more often as I plan to pickup a 2020 V4R Friday. Is there anything I should know or do beforehand? I'm an MV Agusta owner as well. Hopefully I can use most of my tools on the bike!

V4R. Way awesome. I saw one and you can still very much see the difference in that and a V4S

It's kind of hard to tell from my old photos because they are always at angles, but is this amount of space normal for the front wheel? I noticed on Sunday after doing some riding. I mostly noticed it because of the grease on the axle. It also seems like the axle nut doesn't have much thread left. I put a handful of torque to loosen it and it didn't budge, so I it doesn't seem to be loose enough to be backing itself out. Thanks for your input. Sucks being a noob!

Hey mate, I'm certainly no expert, but I've provided mine for comparison (although it has just had a 12K service). It does seem like a lot of grease, but the distances look similar... If it were me, I'd take it in if you were worried.

Thanks for that. Is just seems like so much space. For sure I'll be putting some fork sliders on there for extra precaution in case things get loose [emoji4]

Congrats and welcome aboard! I also have a V4R but it's at the shop getting a new clutch already, 3400 miles. This is with 6 trackdays and Sunday rides.
