    Just a tip you can take the pads out of the caliper when attaching caliper to bracket, easier than taking the rotor off when swapping around IMO + you can check your pads :) Love the bike though, I've got a 2014 WR450SM :)

    • @dazthecowboy
      @dazthecowboy  8 років тому +1

      main reason i took the disc off was that i found loose nuts when checking the bolts before fitting.. this gave me a chance to lock tight each bolt before final assembly. you can see me adding lock tight as i tighten up the disc bolts in the clip.

    • @dazthecowboy
      @dazthecowboy  3 роки тому

      That's a lot of work for something that would more than likely be more cost effective buying over the counter. You would need to true up the rim and have a spoke key to tune your spokes. I'm sure it can be done. There are many motard rim options out there already though.

      @@konstantinoskourini it means to balance your wheel and adjust your spoke so your wheel has no wobble or slack. If done wrong the results can be catastrophic. If you have little understanding of how to true up a rim I would not suggest trying it on your daily rider. Practice with bicycle rims. You'll see how a couple twists can really put your rim out.

    Do you remember if you torqued it to factory spec 125nM ? With my SM Pro rear with a cush drive the outer sprocket ally spacer gets squashed into the s/arm hole and binds the wheel which is no good.

    I'm guessing you had to crank the suspension all the way to stiffen the ride? Also, did this lower the front to an uncomfortable level, as you only went down 1or 2 inches in the rear, but 4 in the front?

    Is the front brake enough considering you ride faster with the new ratio?

    • @dazthecowboy
      @dazthecowboy  7 років тому +2

      +Kayzox yes, with this model you actually need to replace the speedo as they don't have a mode to calibrate it with. With any change to your bike adjusting the ride setup is needed. I always recommend doing one change at a time so you can feel the difference each change makes to your ride setup. The brakes are better now then on the stock setup.

    Is there a trick way to slap the rear wheel on because I've been fighting it for 2 hours because the rear caliper won't line up with the axel.
