Wheel Inspection - Victory 2012 Ness Signature Series Rider's Manual

Maintenance
Brake Disc Inspection / Cleaning
1. Inspect brake pads as outlined on page 43.
2. Inspect brake discs for nicks, scratches, cracks or
other damage. Inspect the thickness of each brake
disc at four or more locations around the disc. If
any disc is worn to the minimum thickness at the
thinnest point, or if a disc is damaged, see your
VICTORY dealer for replacement.
3. Clean discs if minor squeaks develop due to dirt or
dust. Apply VICTORY Brake Cleaner (P/N
2872191) to a clean shop towel and wipe disc. DO
NOT allow brake cleaner to contact painted or
plastic parts. Read all precautions on the label.
Brake Hoses / Connections
Inspect all brake hoses and connections for dampness or stains from leaking or dried fluid.
Tighten any leaking connections and replace components as necessary. See the VICTORY
Service Manual or your authorized VICTORY dealer.

Wheel Inspection

Inspect both wheels for cracks or damage and replace damaged wheels promptly. Do not
operate the motorcycle if wheels are damaged or cracked. See the VICTORY Service Manual
or your authorized VICTORY dealer.
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Tone Ring/Sensor Inspection
1. Visually inspect for damaged teeth on
the front and rear ABS tone rings.
Inspect for nicks and dents on the face
of the teeth. The teeth edges should be
consistent in appearance. If a tone ring
is damaged, see your VICTORY dealer
for replacement as soon as possible.
2. Inspect for debris adhering to the end of
the wheel speed sensors. If contamina-
tion is observed, or if you are unable to
visually inspect, slide a thin towel
across the face of the sensor between
the sensor and the tone ring to remove
any potential debris.
