Take the calipers off and spin wheel - with a felt pen - mark the high spots... If something hit could be bent... You straighten with a very large adj. wrench to pull it a ruber mallet to knock it down... Use solvent to remove pen be done in 10 min. or less...

How Freely should the front wheel spin when up on a stand??.

If it doesn't spin freely with weight on it, that's fairly normal. you might benefit from adjusting the cable tension a bit but my experience says that it's nothing to worry about piecepatrol99 Member Joined Aug 29, 2014 Messages 77 Oct 22, 2014 #3 I had a similiar issue when my clutch cable frayed and jammed inside the sleeve. Push horizontally against the bottom corner, next to the table and you can make the book / box rotate, like a wheelie. The ONLY difference between this and the wheelie on a bike is that the force is driven from the wheel and not the road, accelerating. There is a torque in both cases. Jun 22, 2015. #41. Using a screwdriver or Allen-type wrench in between the chain and sprocket is the best way to ensure the wheel is being pulled forward firmly against the adjusters as you torque the axle nut. Always check your chain tension in a few spots after torqueing to make sure it's not too tight, and always set the correct slack at the tightest spot.

Rear Wheel Won't Free-Roll Backward - Motored Bikes.

Wheel is in the bike straight and secure Brake cables are seated properly Brake caliper is securely fitted and aligned well Brake pads aren't touching the rim, or the tyre Wheel bearings are rolling freely Wheel rim width could be larger than the old wheel (if it was replaced) causing it to touch the brake pads set up for the old rim. One thing to check is to see if the axle is bent. This will cause the wheel to pulse, be loose, and bind. The bent axle could also be rubbing on the freewheel. If the axle is smooth by hand but the wheel does not spin freely, the freewheel could be gummed up. The solution for this is dripping a light oil like T9 (some people prefer Triflow, but. Not sure to be honest. But you could put the bike in gear with the engine off and then try and rotate the back wheel with the clutch lever pulled in and then with the lever released. See if there is any difference? When the engine is running the wheel will spin in neural due to the torque converter effect l understand.

Rear wheel true but not spinning freely! - The Chainlink.

I could be wrong but I thought the rim ran straight to the hub on these bikes, in other words, no off-set. The way the wheel is positioned now if the hub was trued off-set it should be easy to see, but the pics provided don't show this. I would like to see some closer pics from more of an angle to the rear hub/wheel to verify this.

Leave the bike right-side up but elevate the rear wheel to unload it, then spin it to see if it spins normally or not. If it does, and the problem only exists with a loaded rear wheel, then normal riding loads are deforming the wheel. Bike on centre stand, engine running, clutch dissengaged. If the back wheel is turning very slowly and you can stop it by putting your foot on the tyre (carful now), its fine.. A little clutch drag is normal. If it's spinning fast then your clutch is dragging too much... Also test by sitting on the bike, running, in gear with the clutch pulled in. I might have an issue with rear wheel spinning while bike is on stand. I have pit-bull stands (rear and front). While bike is on both rear and front stands, the rear wheel doesn't spin freely at all. While bike is on rear stand only, the rear wheel spins but tough. Here is first video, sorry for arcane language ( rear and front stands ).

Here's another little test: with the bike on the centerstand, engine running, trans in neutral, clutch engaged and rear wheel spinning rev the engine. You will actually see the wheel slow down, or sometimes stop (due to chainline drag (especially with o-ring chains)/rear brake drag/wheelbearing drag).

I noticed the rear wheel on my 1990 Honda elite 80 was locked. (will spin about %10 of a full turn). It WILL spin if you apply the throttle. I dont believe it to be the brakes. I applied the back brake and it stops it from spinning the 10% that it will spin without the brake applied. Its as if the scooter is stuck in "engaged" mode and will not. The larger mass of the rear wheel and less brakes sometimes makes it spin more freely. I don't know where the word "contract" came from in this thread, but contact, release, and retract are the actions. It's the rotor pushing slightly against the pads with the brake released that moves the pads from the released position to the retracted position. Also if the noise is so loud it wont be long till the failure happens. It may also be a the rear brake binding. You can do a simple test by raising the rear wheel clear off the ground and rotating it binding brakes will be obvious as the wheel will not spin freely. This also applies to test for bearing wear as you will hear the noise coming.

Take the wheel off and then put few of the bolts back on the studs. You might need a thick washer or a wrench between the rotor face and base of the nut. If the rotor no longer turns easy, now you. In this case, you will have to do a hall test. To do so, you have to flip your hub motor backward. This is because the motor has a clutch that prevents the wheel from rotating the motor. And then plug the hub motor wires in and power it on. Find out if your electric bike motor spinning freely or it coggs.

Question about cleaning chains (rear tire not spinning freely).

Leave the axle spacers out to help the wheel spin more freely. As before, if your bearings have enough drag that the wheel just won't spin freely (or keeps trying to roll the whole assembly off the stands), find a place where you can set up two parallel and level 2x4" boards, and use those to hold the axle up.

Axle nut torque specs | Motorcycle Forum.

Now when I turn the wheel it does not spin as freely as it did before. It only turns about one revolution, where as before it would spin almost twice as much. I took the bike for about a 10 mile ride, and let the pads 'bed in' and the disks are not getting hot, but still the wheel does not spin freely. Any comments or suggestions. I just got my tire changed and had pulled the rear wheel off. Now that it is back on something isn't right. When i tighten the axle nut to spec, the rear wheel is not spinning freely like it used to. I have checked rear brake, it is not interfering with it. I am not sure what it could be. any input would be greatly appreciated..

Install the axle (without the tire) and adjust the second fork up or down in the triple until the axle spins freely (Greased). Then retorque your triple clamps and install your tire per the manual. Torque axle bolt (43ft/lbs), and then your pinch bolts. 16ft/lbs for the '03-04 models and 22ft/lbs for '05-06 models. 03-23-2010, 07:03 AM. The pawls inside the freehub (or freewheel) are gunked up (technical term here...). There is a ratchet mechanism that allows for coasting (when it disengages) and engages, when you apply force to the wheel. Try applying some lube to the inside might free this up.

Front brake pads rubbing the rotor and wheel and won't rotate freely.

USA. Apr 2, 2015. #4. It should take a good push. Try to gently spin it with a wrench and see if everything feels alright. If you have any doubts you may want to take it to a shop. This is one of those things you need to see and feel, hard to diagnose online. Your "doesn't spin well" might be my "wow, spins great". Ive got a 2015 KTM 125 sx, the rear wheel has had no problems until just a couple days ago when I was prepping to go ride this weekend. I put my bike on the stand and in neutral and spun my back wheel but there was something that was holding it back from spinning freely, the spin would completely stop after about 2 or 3 seconds.

Take your calipers off real quick and see if it spins nice and free. Loosen and tighten the axle and pinch bolts as described above. Biglen, The way to check if the forks are inverted is by the year bud. 05 was the first year. fallingbomb Registered Joined Aug 24, 2009 3,191 Posts #10 · Apr 26, 2012 It's fine.
