! WARNING !
- After mounting front wheel,
operate hand brake lever until
pressure point is established.
- Keep brake discs free from oil and
fatty materials, otherwise braking
effect will be strongly reduced.
REAR WHEEL REMOVAL
Dismounting and mounting the rear
wheel
Jack the motorcycle up on its frame so
that the rear wheel no longer touches
the ground. Loosen the collar nut (1) in
the right side, hold the rear wheel and
pull out the wheel spindle (2) by the left
side until the rear wheel is free but the
brake calliper support is still held in the
swing arm.
Push the rear wheel as far forward as
possible, take out the chain from the
rear sprocket and carefully remove the
wheel carefuly from the swing arm.
To mount rear wheel, follow the above
procedure in reverse order, being
careful to place the brake disc correctly
between the brake pads. Make sure
that rear wheel guides are touching rear
wheel adjusters (3) and that both have
same setting.
! CAUTION !
- Do not operate rear brake pedal
when rear wheel has been
removed.
- Make sure brake disc is always
on top when you lay down the
wheel, otherwise brake disc can be
damaged.
- If axle is dismounted, clean the
thread of the wheel spindle and
apply a new coat of grease to
prevent thread from jamming.
! WARNING !
- After mounting rear wheel,
operate brake pedal until pressure
point is established.
- Keep brake discs free from oil and
fatty materials, otherwise braking
effect will be strongly reduced.
- Tighten the collar nut with
required torque. A loose wheel
spindle may lead to unstable
behaviour of your motorcycle.
TIRES
Tires, air pressure
Tire type, its condition and air pressure,
affect the way your motorcycle
behaves; therefore, they must be
checked whenever you are getting
ready to go anywhere on your
motorcycle.
- Tire size can be found in the technical
specifications and registration
documents.
- Before leaving, check tires for
punctures and nails or other sharp
objects that might have become
embedded in them. Refer to specific
regulations in your country for minimum
tire tread requirements.
- Tire pressure should be checked
regularly on a “cold” tyre. Proper
pressure ensures optimum driving
comfort and extends the life of your
tyres.
