After '07: |
• Keep grease off the brake pads and disc.
• A contaminated brake disc or pad reduces stopping power. Discard contaminated pads and clean a contaminated disc with a high quality brake degreasing agent.
• When servicing the front wheel, fork or steering stem, support the motorcycle using a work stand or equivalent under the engine.
• After front wheel installation, check the brake operation by applying the brake lever.
• Refer to the brake system information (page 16-3).
• When using the lock nut wrench, use a 20-inch long deflecting beam type torque wrench. The lock nut wrench increases the torque wrench's leverage, so the torque wrench reading will be less than the torque actually applied to the fork damper. The specification given on this page is actual torque applied to the fork damper, not the reading on the torque wrench when used with the lock nut wrench. The procedure later in the text gives the actual and indicated torque.
