Wheel Bearing Removal
Inspection
Only remove raised witness marks from within the
wheel. Removal of material below any raised areas will
reduce the level of interference between the wheel and
the bearings. Loss of interference could cause the
bearing to become loose in the wheel leading to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
1. Examine the wheel for any raised witness marks
caused by the removal process. Remove any such
marks with fine emery paper or a gentle file.
Installation
Note:
• Refer to the chart below for the correct tool
and tool face when inserting bearings. Bearings
are inserted by means of a draw-bolt acting on
the insertion tool. A support tool is located on
the opposite side of the wheel to the insertion
tool and as the bolt is tightened, the bearing is
drawn in to the wheel.
• Insert bearings with the marked or shielded
side facing outwards and always fit a new
bearing circlip and seals.
