Removal
Warning: Before starting work, ensure the motorcycle is stabilised and adequately supported. This will help prevent it from falling and causing injury to the operator or damage to the motorcycle.
1. Remove the rider's seat (see page 16-13).
2. Remove the battery (see page 17-8)
3. Disconnect the wheel speed sensor multiplug, located under the battery. Note the routing of the ABS sensor harness for installation.
4. Detach the ABS sensor harness from its clips on the rear brake hose.
5. Release the fixing securing the wheel speed sensor to the rear brake caliper carrier and remove the sensor. Collect the shim and discard the fixing.
1. ABS sensor; 2. ABS harness bracket; 3. Fixing; 4. Shim(s)
Installation
Note: Check the condition of the shim before use. Do not use a shim which is bent or damaged.
1. Position the shim to the fixing such that it will be installed between the wheel speed sensor and the brake caliper carrier.
2. Fit the wheel speed sensor, harness bracket and shim to the brake caliper carrier as noted during removal. Temporarily fit the original bolt and tighten to 9 Nm.
3. The air gap between the wheel speed sensor and the pulser ring must be between 0.1 mm and 1.5 mm. Check and adjust the wheel speed sensor air gap as described on page 14-38.
4. Once the wheel speed sensor air gap measurement is correct, install a new bolt (if not already replaced during air gap adjustmen and tighten to 9 Nm.
5. Attach the ABS sensor harness to its clips on the brake hose.
6. Connect the wheel speed sensor multiplug.
7. Refit the battery (see page 17-8).
8. Refit the rider's seat (see page 16-13).
9. Check that the brakes operate correctly.
