Turbocharged
I don't know how tight they need to be but it would seem to me the the additional 1/8 turn should have been enough. Maybe not. I put the twisteroo to the top nut on the old Yamaha & it wouldn't come out of a turn on its own (over did it I guess). Had to go back & take some torque off. Maybe the manual would shine some light.
I know that when I put my Rocket on the centerstand, the fork is loose enough that it swings side to side without "any" resistance. In fact, when its up on the stand and I let go of the handlebar, the front fork will swing fully (the the stop) to one side or the other on its own when I push down on the luggage rack to lift the front tire off the ground. I usually block the frame to hold the front tire off the ground for easy cleaning of both wheels & I can't make the front fork stay straight. It always wants to swing to the side.
See ya.
