Emergency Front Wheel Removal/Installation
Taking Care of the Unexpected
If You Have a Flat Tire
Safety PrecautionsRefer to on page .
Park your motorcycle on a firm, level surface.
To avoid damage to the brake hose during removal, support the caliper
assembly so that it doesn’t hang from the hose. Do not twist the brake hose.
Avoid getting grease, oil, or dirt on the disc or pad surfaces. Any
contamination can cause poor brake performance or rapid pad wear after
reassembly.
Raise the front wheel off the ground by placing a support block under the
engine, being careful to avoid contact with the exhaust pipe and front lower
cover.
Remove the parts in sequence, according to the order in the illustration.
Removal
We recommend wheel removal be done only by your dealer or another qualified
mechanic. Do not attempt to remove the wheel on your own. Wheel removal
requires mechanical skill and professional tools.
When removing and installing the wheel, be careful not to damage the
sensor and pulser ring.
Avoid depressing the brake lever and brake pedal when the wheel is off the
motorcycle. This will force the caliper pistons out of the cylinders. The
result will be a loss of brake fluid. If this occurs, the brake system will
require service.
See your dealer for this service.
