INSPECTION
Inspect the condition of all the components,
especially the ones listed below.
Bearings
Rotate the internal ring (1) manually: there must be no
catching or noise.
There must be no end float.
Any bearings not meeting these requirements must be
renewed.
Apply grease to the balls (or rollers) at the side of
each bearing, see (LUBRICANT CHART) .
This operation is not required of the bearing is of
the self-lubricating type.
Rear axle
See ENGINE WORKSHOP MANUAL n°1063 ,

n°1068 .
Rim
Using a dial indicator, determine that the radial and
axial runout of the rim are within specification.
Excessive runout is usually caused by worn or dam-
aged bearings or a bent axle. If after checking these
components, you determine the rim still does not meet
specification, the rim must be replaced.
Max. radial and axial runout: 0.078 in (2 mm).
