Order of assembly... Motor, then fork?

Post by Sascha » Fri Nov 26, 2010 2:49 pm

Hey guys, Should I mount the motor before or after mounting the front fork? Is it going to be more difficult to get the motor in once the fork is on or will I have lots of clearance?

Need some opinions on this one!

I mounted the frame to the motor first, then lifted the whole stuff up, and then installed the rearwheel and frontfork + wheel.

I thought it was a friendly way, when you install the wheels first, then you might get trouble with clearances and such, now, with only a frame you have all the space you need for a easy fit.
