Refitting is the reverse of removal, with attention to the following points.
If the calliper bracket locating pin (14) was removed, apply the recommended threadlocker on reassembly.
Tighten the pin (14) to the torque of 33 nm +/- 5% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).
If previously removed, refit the cable grommet (25) as shown in the figure and tighten the screw (26) to a torque of 1 nm +/- 10% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).
Before refitting apply some recommended grease to the eccentric hub (22) external surface.
Insert the hub (22) fully home on the swingarm (8).
Note
During this operation force the hub seat open on the swingarm enough to fit the hub (22).
