6-1 FRONT WHEEL AND BRAKE
INSPECTION AND SERVICING
WHEEL BEARINGS
Inspect the play of wheel bearing inner race by hand while
installed it in the wheel.
Rotate the inner race by hand to inspect an abnormal noise
and a smooth rotation. Replace the bearing if there is something
unusual.
WHEEL
Make sure that the wheel runout checked as shown, does not
exceed the service limit. An excessive runout is usually due to
worn or loose wheel bearings and can be reduced by replacing
the bearings. If bearing replacement fails to reduce the runout,
replace the wheel.
Service limit
2.0mm
TIRE
For proper braking and riding stability, the tire should have
sufficient groove depth from the tread surface. If the groove
depth, measured as shown in the figure, reaches the wear limit,
replace the tire.
Wear limit
1.6mm
