Front Brakes

Rotor Removal and Installation
Removal

CAUTION: Do not hang the caliper assembly from the brake hose. Any resulting internal hose restriction will impede uniform braking action.

CAUTION: To guarantee uniform braking on both sides, both rotors must have identical surfaces regarding smoothness and scoring depth. For this reason, always replace both rotors.

1. Remove the caliper assembly without disconnecting the brake hoses. Refer to Caliper Assembly Removal and Installation.
2. Remove the rotor-to-front wheel hub detent screws.





3. Pull off the rotor.

Installation
1. Inspect the rotor.
2. Install the rotor to the front wheel hub by tightening the detent screw.
Tighten: Tighten the rotor-to-front wheel hub detent screw to 4 Nm (35 inch lbs.).





3. Install the caliper assembly.
