to
the motorcycle.

If
removing the calliper completely, disconnect
the brake hose. Otherwise, leave the hose
attached.
Do not allow the caliper to hang
on
the brake hoses
as this may damage the hoses
and
could lead to
reduced brake efficiency causing loss of motorcycle
control
and
an
accident.
5.
As
an
assembly, manoeuvre the calliper and
carrier until it
is
clear of the brake disc and wheel,
collecting the spacer once it
is
freed from the
caliper carrier.
