CAUTION
Never touch the rear brake pedal after re-
moving the wheel. If you do, the caliper
pistons may be pushed out of their seats,
and brake fluid will be spilled. Should
you accidentally do this, take your vehi-
cle to your Local
Dealer who will
know how to repair this damage.
REASSEMBLY
N
Apply a thin film of grease to the outer
seals of the rear wheel hub.
CAUTION
While reassembling the wheel, be care-
ful not to damage the brake line, the
disc and the pads.
N
Position the wheel centrally in the swing-
ing arm, on the support (1).
WARNING
Keep your fingers well away from the
chain and sprocket. You could easily
lose a finger if it becomes pinched be-
tween these two parts. Use heavy work
gloves while installing the rear wheel.
Never attempt to line the rear wheel up
using your fingers. Failure to heed this
warning can result in serious personal
injury.
N
Move the wheel as far forward as possi-
ble, to install the drive chain (6) on the
rear sprocket (7).
N
Pull the rear wheel backwards until the
bearing holes are lined up with the holes
in the swinging arm.
N
Lightly grease the outside of the axle (2).
N
Install the washer (5) on the axle (2).
NOTE
To facilitate the insertion of the
axle (2), slightly raise the wheel.
N
Install the axle (2) completely through
the wheel from the left side.
NOTE
Ensure that the axle (2) is pushed
all the way home with the head in the ap-
propriate seat on the left chain tightener.
N
Install the washer (4) and tighten the nut
(3) finger tight.
N
Remove the support (1) from under the
rear tire.
N
Check the chain tension, see p. 78
(DRIVE CHAIN).
N
Tighten the nut (3).
Wheel nut (3) tightening torque:
72.33 ftlb (100 Nm).
WARNING
After servicing the brakes, always
check them for function. If the stroke of
the lever or pedal is excessive, or if you
detect that the effectiveness of the
brakes is reduced in any way, have your
vehicle serviced by your Local
Dealer. It may be necessary to have
your dealer bleed the system, or there
may be some other problem with the
brake system.
Never ride your vehicle in traffic immedi-
ately after servicing the brakes.
Always apply the brake pedal or lever
several times before riding your vehicle.
Then, try your vehicle in a parking lot or
other safe area with little traffic to ensure
that the brakes are working properly.
Failure to observe this warning can lead
to a serious accident with subsequent se-
rious injury or death.
Check the wheel centering.
Have the tightening torques, centering
and balancing of the wheel checked by
your Local
Dealer. These are
critical safety operations, and failure to
observe this warning could lead to an
upset with subsequent serious injury or
death.
