Read 1.2.1 carefully.

Torque wrench settings:
  • Caliper mounting bolts (7): 22 Nm (2.2 kg·m)
  • Wheel spindle bolt (6): 80 Nm (8 kg·m)
  • Wheel spindle clamp screws (8): 12 Nm (1.2 kg·m)

Smear a light coat of grease over the total length of the wheel spindle (1); see 1.8.1.

Warning! Use great care when refitting the wheel to avoid damaging the brake lines, brake discs and brake pads.


Position the housing (3) of the speedometer drive (2) correctly to the special anti-rotation peg (4).



Note. The spacer (5) must have the larger diameter face pointing to the right fork leg.


Position the spacer (5) to the wheel.

Place the wheel between the fork legs above the support.



Danger! Do not attempt to align the holes by putting your fingers into the holes. This could result in severe personal injury.



Move the wheel until the centre hole aligns with the holes in the forks.

Slide the wheel spindle (1) fully home.

Fit the washer and snug the screw (6) hand-tight.

Lock out wheel spindle (1) rotation.

Tighten the screw (6) fully.

Warning! Use great care or you might damage the brake pads.


Fit the brake caliper to the brake disc with the mounting holes aligned with the holes in the caliper carrier.

Warning! Replace both caliper mounting bolts (7) with new bolts of the same type fitted originally.


Start the two caliper mounting bolts (7) in their holes and tighten.

Hold in the front brake lever and press down on the handlebars repeatedly to pump the front fork up and down. This will allow the fork legs to seat themselves properly.

Tighten the two wheel spindle clamp bolts (8) working on both sides.

Remove the front wheel stand (OPT); see 1.7.1.

Remove the rear wheel stand (OPT); see 1.7.2.



Warning! After refitting the wheel, work the front brake lever repeatedly and check for proper operation of the brake.


Ensure that the wheel is properly centred.
