Brake Disc
Before this inspection, brake pads must be removed.
Check disc surface for scratches in wearing parts. Scratches on
disc surface noticed at the time of specified inspection or replace-
ment are normal and disc is not defective unless they are serious.
But when there are deep scratches or scratches all over disc sur-
face, replace it. When only one side is scratched, polish and correct
that side.
Disc thickness ªaº
Standard: 22 mm (0.866 in.) For SUMITOMO ELECTRIC. . . . .
brake caliper
17 mm (0.670 in.) For TOKICO brake caliper. . . . .
Service limit: 20 mm (0.787 in.) For SUMITOMO ELECTRIC. .
brake caliper
15 mm (0.590 in.) For TOKICO brake caliper. .
Use wheel nuts and suitable plain washers to hold the disc securely
against the hub, then mount a dial indicator as shown and measure
the runout at 25 mm (0.98 in.) from the outer edge of the disc.
Limit on disc deflection: 0.15 mm (0.006 in.)
NOTE:
Check front wheel bearing for looseness before measure-
ment.
Cylinder Slide Guide Pin / Pin Bolt
Check guide pin for smooth movement as shown.
If it is found faulty, correct or replace. Apply rubber grease to guide
pin outer surface. Rubber grease should be the on whose viscosity

INSPECTION
Cylinder Boot
Check boots for breakage, crack and damage. If defective, replace.
Piston Seal
Excessive or uneven wear of pad lining may indicate unsmooth re-
turn of the piston. In such a case, replace rubber seal.
ASSEMBLY
Reassemble front brake in reverse order of disassembly, noting the
following points.
CAUTION:

Wash each part cleanly before installation in the same
fluid as the one used in master cylinder reservoir.

Never use other fluid or thinner.

Before installing piston and piston seal to cylinder, apply
fluid to them.

After reassembling brake lines, bleed air from them.
Piston Seal
Piston seal is used to seal piston and cylinder and to adjust clear-
ance between pad and disc. Replace with a new one at every over-
haul. Fit piston seal into groove in cylinder taking care not to twist
it.
