HOME 6. See Figure 2-84 . Lubricate compensator cushion (1) with a detergent spray like glass cleaner and install com- pensator cushion. Be sure the PULLEY SIDE legend (3) is facing out. 4. Apply a light coat of LOCTITE ANTI-SEIZE LUBRICANT to axle, bearing bores, bore of left spacer, bore of brake caliper mount, and bore of inner sleeve. a. From left side, carefully insert axle through swingarm, left side spacer, drive sprocket, compensator cushion, into wheel assembly. 7. Install the compensation spacer (2) with the grooved end in the cushion (1). 8. Insert sprocket dogs into compensator cushion to mate sprocket to rear wheel. b.
Continue sliding axle through wheel assembly hub sleeve, right side spacer, brake caliper, and left swingarm. Center right side spacer on wheel bearing Figure 2-84. Compensator Cushion in Compensator Bowl (typical) 6. Verify axle alignment and then check belt deflection. See 1.16 REAR BELT DEFLECTION . 7. Use a wrench to rotate rear axle adjuster until drive belt deflection is within specifications. INSTALLATION 1. Install wheel into swingarm. 2. Slide drive belt over drive sprocket. 3. Slide brake calipers over front brake disc between brake pads. Lubricate rubber bumper with a detergent spray and slide slot in the caliper over brake anchor weldment on swingarm.
Be sure rubber bumper is in place under weld- ment. Check wheel bearing end play after tightening axle nut to specified torque. Excessive end play can adversely affect stability and handling. Insufficient end play can cause bearing seizure. Either condition can cause loss of control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00285a) 8. Tighten axle nut to 190-203 Nm (140-150 ft-lbs). 9. Install snap ring. 10. If belt guard was removed, slide belt guard slots onto . sm03109 1 2 3 5 4 1. Compensator cushion 2. Compensator spacer 3.

Slip on right side axle adjuster. Right side axle adjuster will only fit in a manner that matches position of left side eccentric. d. Coat flange of axle nut with LOCTITE ANTI-SEIZE LUBRICANT and thread on and finger tighten axle nut. Whenever a wheel is installed and before moving the motorcycle, pump brakes to build brake system pressure. Insufficient pressure can adversely affect brake perform- ance, which could result in death or serious injury. (00284a) NOTE • If ABS equipped, never pull wheel speed sensor cable tight or use to retain wheel, axle or other components.
• Always keep wheel speed sensor (and ABS encoder bearing) away from magnetic fields (such as magnetic parts trays, magnetic base dial indicators, alternator rotors, etc.) or damage will occur. 5. Pump brake pedal to move pistons out until they contact rubber grommets. Install shoc See 2.37 REAR SHOCK ABS 11. Slide debris deflector slots on grommet.
