Rear Brake

BRAKE (REAR): REAR BRAKE: INSPECTION

1. INSPECT PAD LINING THICKNESS

(a) Using a ruler, measure the pad lining thickness.





Standard thickness:

9.5 mm (0.374 in.)

Minimum thickness:

1.0 mm (0.0394 in.)

If the pad lining thickness is equal to or less than the minimum, replace the brake pad.

HINT
Be sure to check the wear of the rear disc after replacing the brake pads with new ones.

2. INSPECT REAR DISC BRAKE PAD SUPPORT PLATE

(a) Make sure that the rear disc brake pad support plate has sufficient rebound, no deformation, cracks or wear, and that all rust and dirt is cleaned off.

If necessary, replace the rear disc brake pad support plate.

3. INSPECT DISC THICKNESS

(a) Using a micrometer, measure the disc thickness.





Standard thickness:

10.0 mm (0.394 in.)

Minimum thickness:

8.5 mm (0.335 in.)

If the disc thickness is less than the minimum, replace the rear disc.

4. INSPECT DISC RUNOUT

(a) Inspect the rear axle hub bearing looseness Rear Axle Hub.

(b) Install the disc with the 5 hub nuts.

Torque : 103 Nm (1050 kgf-cm, 76 ft-lbf)

(c) Using a dial indicator, measure the disc runout 10 mm (0.394 in.) away from the outer edge of the rear disc.





Maximum disc runout:

0.15 mm (0.00591 in.)

NOTICE:
* Keep the magnet of the dial indicator away from the axle hub and speed sensor.
* Install the dial indicator to the shock absorber.

If the runout is more than the maximum, change the installation position of the disc to minimize runout. If the runout is more than the maximum even when the installation position is changed, grind the disc. If the disc thickness is less than the minimum, replace the rear disc.

(d) Remove the 5 hub nuts and rear disc.
