9. Using a spring scale, measure the rotary sliding resistance
of the hub in the forward direction.
between the values measured in 9 and 4).
Standard value: 70 N (15.4 Ibs.) or less
11. If the drag force of the brake exceeds the standard value,
disassemble the piston and check for dirty or corroded
piston sliding surface and deteriorated piston seal.
INSPECTION OF FRONT BRAKE DISC THICKNESS
1. Using a micrometer, measure disc thickness at eight
positions, approximately 45" apart and 10 mm (.39 in.) in
from the outer edge of the disc.
Standard value: <FWD>
Limit: <FWD>
Thickness Variation (At least 8 positions)
2. If the disc is beyond the limits for thickness, remove it and
install a new one.

run-out of the disc.
Limit: <FWD> 0.07 mm (.0028 in.) or less
