Installation notes
• To install the rear wheel, reverse the removal
procedure.
• Install the side collar into the left side wheel hub.
• Make sure that the lug (10) on the swingarm (11) is
located in the slot (12) in the brake panel (13).
• Tighten the rear axle nut to specified torque:
Rear axle nut torque:
88 N·m (9.0 kgf·m, 65 lbf·ft)
• Adjust the rear brake pedal freeplay (page 23) and
drive chain (page 55).
• After installing the wheel, apply the brake several
times and then check if the wheel rotates freely.
Recheck the wheel if the brake drags or if the wheel
does not rotate freely.
If a torque wrench was not used for installation, see
your Honda dealer as soon as possible to verify proper
assembly. Improper assembly may lead to loss of
braking capacity.
