Final Drive Chain Guard -
Installation
WARNING
Make sure the motorcycle is stabilised
and adequately supported.
Do not support the motorcycle on any
ancillary component, the exhaust
system or any other non structural
parts of the motorcycle frame.
A correctly supported motorcycle will
help prevent it from falling.
An unstable motorcycle may fall
resulting in motorcycle damage,
serious injury or death.
▼ Position the two locating slots at the
front end of the rear hugger and
chain guard onto the retaining
grommets.
▼ Make sure the two retaining tangs
on the rear suspension unit guard
are in the locating holes on the rear
hugger and chain guard.
▼ Fit the two fixings and tighten to 4
Nm.

Brakes
Breaking-in New Brake Discs and
Pads
WARNING
Brake pads must always be replaced
as a wheel set. At the front, where two
calipers are fitted on the same wheel,
replace all the brake pads in both
calipers.
After replacement brake pads have
been fitted, ride with extreme caution
until the new pads have 'broken in'.
Replacing individual pads will reduce
braking efficiency and may lead to loss
of motorcycle control which could
result in serious injury or death.
New brake discs and pads require a
period of careful breaking-in that will
optimise the performance and longevity
of the discs and pads.
The recommended distance for
breaking-in new pads and discs is
200miles (300km).
During the breaking-in period, avoid
extreme braking, ride with caution and
allow for greater braking distances.
