While reassembling the wheel, be careful not to damage the brake pipe, the disc and the pads. Position the wheel between the fork rods. Insert the seat (14) of the odometer control (5) in correspondence with the antirotation pin (15). Insert the wheel pin (6) from the right side of the vehicle (travelling direction). Insert the washer (8), lock the rotation of the wheel pin (6) with a spanner, screw and tighten the nut (7). After reassembly, pull the front brake lever repeatedly and check the correct functioning of the braking system. Have the driving torques, centering and balancing of the wheel checked by your aprilia Official Dealer, in order to avoid accidents that may be harmful for you and/or other people.
