Installation
1.
Locate the first disc on the correct side of the wheel
(offset of disc outwards) as noted during removal.
2.
Fit new disc bolts and tighten to 22 Nm.
3.
Fit the remaining disc in the same way.
4.
Refit the wheel (see page 16-9 for Rocket III and
Classic, see page 16-11 for Rocket III Touring).
5.
Check the operation of the front brake. Rectify as
necessary.
It is dangerous to operate the motorcycle with defective
brakes and you must have your authorised Triumph
dealer take remedial action before you attempt to ride
the motorcycle again. Failure to take remedial action
may reduce braking efficiency leading to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.

Removal
Before starting work, ensure the motorcycle is stabilised
and adequately supported. This will help prevent it from
falling and causing injury to the operator or damage to
the motorcycle.
1.
Remove the seat (see page 17-17).
2.
Disconnect the battery negative (black) lead first.
To prevent paint damage, do not spill brake fluid onto
any area of the bodywork.
Spilled brake fluid will
damage paintwork.
3.
To drain the fluid from the master cylinder, attach a
tube to the right hand caliper bleed nipple, slacken
the nipple and operate the brake lever until all fluid
has been expelled into a suitable container.
4.
Remove the right hand switch cube (see page 11-
180>.
5.
Disconnect the throttle cables (see page 11-179).
6.
Note the setting of the brake lever adjuster to ensure
it is returned to the same position when the overhaul
operation is complete.
