Rear Axle Nuts, Keeper Plate Bolt, and Chain Tension
See diagram on page 33. The rear axle (technically, the motor’s Stator
shaft) is secured by means of keeper plates (to prevent shaft rotation and
maintain position for chain tension adjustment) and a large nut on each
side.
Before checking torques, make sure that the pedal chain tension is not
too tight or loose. The chain should have about 1 cm (1/2” ) of deflection
when pulled or pushed in the middle of its run. Adjustment requires loos-
ening the axle and keeper bolts, positioning the rear axle so the wheel
is in-line with the frame and the chain has correct amount of deflection,
and then tightening keeper bolts and axle nuts as below.
All CCT motors have M16 axles. The axle nut requires a 24mm (SAE 15/16”
is also suitable) wrench or socket; the M6 keeper bolt has either an 8
or 10mm head. An adjustable wrench is not a suitable tool for this job.
Temporary removal of the chain-guard panels may be necessary to gain
access.
Check the keeper plate bolts applying 6-8 ft-lb of torque. If it moves,
remove the bolt and re-install it with a few drops of medium-strength
thread locker (LocTite™ 242 or equivalent) applied to the leading bolt
threads and torque to the above spec.
Check each M16 axle nut by applying 100-110 ft-lb of torque. Be careful
not to tip the bike over.
Front and Rear Wheels
The front wheel has a number of spacers and on some models, a mechan-
ical speedometer drive gear that must be replaced in the correct order.
The rear wheel has spacers plus motor wiring that needs to be discon-
nected, usually requiring body panel removal as well. For these reasons,
please refer servicing requiring removal of wheels to your MOTORINO™
dealer.
Brake Fluid Level, Topping-Up, Flushing and Bleeding
WARNING!
Top-up or refill only with DOT3 or DOT4 automotive brake fluid.
Using any kind of oil or other hydraulic fluid will likely damage the
cylinder seals and could render the bike unsafe.
