Thumbs up and subscribed, really good video. There are videos on UA-cam similar in content but not as clear and informative as your. Great job. I'm waiting for more on s1000xr

This is the third time I’ve done this and it’s still a struggle. Be very careful of the speed sensor ring as I’ve dinged mine so now the ABS/Traction control is disabled with the electronics going mental! I’ve hopefully not damaged the sensor itself but knowing my luck…

[@HelpMeDIY]

+Jason yes!

[@roundingcorners]

nice instructions, one thing that will make life easier is to push the pistons down in the rear brake caliper before you reassemble so that it will easily clear the rotor when you're putting it back on. Trying to get it back in with barely enough clearance will cause one to cuss a lot.

[@HelpMeDIY]

+roundingcorners yes, good tip

[@specialandroid1603]

The rear wheel sensor has very little clearance between it and the sensor ring. Rolling the wheel back risks damaging the sensor ?

[@HelpMeDIY]

+@specialandroid1603 I guess there could be a risk 🤷‍♂️

[@Jason-cl8hk]

Excellent. Thanks.

+Jason you’re welcome! 🍻

How to get the wheel straight, AND adjust the chain sag correct?

[@HelpMeDIY]

+Dan Raabe Performance - mental strength, personal tactics, skilled movement seems like it self straightens and there is a guide printed by the chain on how to adjust
