FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
•
Staring from the RHS of the bike, use a 27mm socket to loosen the axle nut as
shown in picture 1. This will be easiest when the rear wheel is on the ground,
do not fully remove the nut at this stage.
•
You will need to lift the rear wheel off the ground by lifting the swingarm and
supporting the rear wheel with wooden blocks, as shown in picture 2, to stop
the wheel dropping when the spindle is removed in the following steps.
•
Fully remove the axle nut and remove the spindle as shown in picture 3. You
may wish to use a soft mallet and a suitable drift in order to aid removal.
•
Remove the OEM adjuster blocks.
•
Referring to LHS Assembly diagram, replace the OEM adjuster block with the
LHS metal block (item 1), ensuring the recessed section is pointing away from
the bike.
•
Referring to RHS Assembly diagram, replace the OEM adjuster block with the
LHS metal block (item 2) as shown in picture 4, ensuring the adjuster markings
are facing upwards.
•
Replace the spindle in the original orientation ensuring the head of the spindle
sits into the recess of the LHS adjuster block.
•
Refit the spindle nut and tighten to the manufacturers suggested torque (you
may wish to torque the nut once the rear wheel is on the ground)
•
For each side, refer to the relevant assembly diagram and proceed with the
following steps:
o
Place one M10 washer (item 5) over one M10 x 50mm cap head bolt (item
6).
o
Pass the threaded section of the bolt through either cotton reel (item 4)
so the washer sits into the counterbore.
o
Slide one spacer (S1017
–
6.5mm
–
item 3) over the bolt.
o
Fit the bolt and cotton reel assembly into the threaded boss of the chain
adjuster blocks using an 8mm allen key and tighten to the recommended
torque.
o
Fit one nut cap (item 7) into each bolt head as shown in picture 5.
•
You can now lower the bike and re-check all bolts are tight before riding.
•
Re-check tightness of all bolts regularly to ensure correct operation.
