Hey guys, just wondering if anyone would know the gap distance, from the end of the inside of the rear swingarm to the outer flat face of the brake disk. Need to know gap measurement as my rear disk is going a goldy colour.
i think theres a bit to much heat or is this normal ?
As i had the rear wheel bearings replaced. Therefore i dont know if the mechanic has pushed the bearings in too far as this is the standard fatboy rim and it has no shoulders in hub for the bearings to push up against. So all i was thinking was maybe the bearings havent been put back in the same position which is now making the brake disk rub harder when free wheeling causing the disk to heat up too much and change colour ?
Any suggest and a couple of reference measurements would be greatly appreciated.
The picture i have hear is where i measured gap from.
Cheers ! Rear disk gap measurement between end of inner frame leg to outer rear disk face.
