7.9.2 CHECKING THE COMPONENTS
aCAUTION
Make sure that all the components are intact, particu-
larly the following.
7.9.3 REAR FORK BEARINGS
Carry out the check with the bearings mounted on the
rear fork.
CHECKING THE ROTATION
â—† Manually rotate the rollers (1) of each single bearing.
The rotation must be regular, smooth and noiseless.
If one or both bearings is/are not in compliance with the
check parameters:
~ Remove the seal (2).
â—† Wash the bearings with a clean detergent.
aCAUTION
Prevent the compressed air from making the bear-
ings turn, since this would damage them.
â—† Dry the bearings with compressed air.
â—† Repeat the rotation check on both bearings.
If one or both bearings is/are not in compliance with the
check parameters:
â—† Change the rear fork bearings, see 7.9.6 (DISASSEM-
BLING THE REAR FORK GASKETS).
aWARNING
Always change both bearings.
Always replace the bearings with bearings of the
same type.
CHECKING THE END AND RADIAL PLAY
â—† Check the radial play and the end play.
End play: a minimum end play is allowed.
Radial play: none.
If one or both bearings is/are not in compliance with the
check parameters:

damaged or feature signs of excessive wear, change
them.
aWARNING
Always change both seals.
Always replace the gaskets with gaskets of the same
type.
