Rear
wh
e
el
The rear wheel hub bearings are of t
he
non-adjustable ball journal type. A
detachable
steel sprocket is bolted to the hub
by
four bolts.
With hub bearings
in
good condition, there should not
be
any detectable
side movements at
the
wheel
rim.
To remove the rear wheel
Raise the machine on
to
the centre stand. (Removal is easier if a 3" block
is placed
underneath). Ensure that the machine is in gear and remove the
rear chain connecting
link. Remove the left muffler. Remove the wheel
spindle
nut, and withdraw the spindle from the left side. Collect
an
adjuster and end cap from each side of the swinging fork. Detach the
speedometer
cable from the drive box. The brake caliper can now be
swung down out of the way
I and the wheel removed.
Replacement
is
the reversal of the removal procedure but always
r
emember
to
sWing
the brake caliper back into position
and
relocate the
support
plate on the wheel spindl
e.
The disc is fed between the brake
p
ad
s as the wheel is placed back
in
p
os
ition
to
receive the spindle. Finally
check the rear chain adjustment and wheel
al
ignme
nt.
