Chassis
Installing
The height of the swingarm pin relative to the
chassis is adjusted with special inserts installed in
the respective seats in the chassis. The hole is
offset by -5 mm (-0.197 in) relative to the centreline
of the insert, as a result the swingarm is in the low
position.
There are four inserts, subdivided as follows:
Inner/outer
Right/left
THE TWO LEFT SIDE SWINGARM PIN INSERTS ARE THE
SAME.
THE TWO RIGHT SIDE SWINGARM PIN INSERTS ARE DIF-
FERENT.
Refit the swingarm height adjustment inserts if removed, bearing in mind that the arrow must
face downward.
WARNING
PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE DIRECTION OF THE INSERTS WHEN REFITTING. IN-
CORRECT ASSEMBLY MAY CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THE ARROW MUST
FACE DOWNWARD.
Spread a light coating of lubricating grease along the entire length of the swingarm pin.
Fit the adjustment bush into its seat and tighten by hand.
CAUTION
THE ADJUSTMENT BUSH MUST NOT PROTRUDE BEYOND THE INNER EDGE OF THE FRAME.
Supporting the front end of the swing-
arm, move it into a position which
aligns the holes while simultaneously
fitting the pin completely into place.
Ensure that the hexagonal profile on
the head of the pin is engaged correctly
in the hexagonal inner seat in the ad-
justment bush.
Fit the ring nut and hand-tighten by a
few turns.
