Caution
Bold reference numbers in this section identify parts shown in this exploded view diagram. These parts do not appear
in the figures near the text.
Removing the rear wheel
Place the motorcycle on a paddock stand so as to lift the rear wheel off the ground.
Undo the nut (1) on the right side of the swingarm.
Loosen the screws (4) so as to slacken the chain.
Loosen the screws (B) to remove the brake caliper (A) from the plate, but leave it connected to the system.
Withdraw the wheel shaft (2) together with the nut (1) from the left side. Collect the plates (3) at either side of the
swingarm.
Caution
During this operation, properly support the wheel so that it will not fall while wheel shaft (2) is being removed.
Push the wheel forward to take the chain off the rear sprocket.
Remove the rear wheel from the motorcycle. The brake caliper mounting plate is sitting loose on the swingarm and
the brake disc (11) might hit the plate during removal. Securing the plate to the swingarm with a tie might help
prevent damage to the brake disc.
The removed wheel still holds the rear sprocket flange. Remove the screws (4), the cover (15) and the slider (16) in
case slider (16) needs to be replaced.
