Rear wheel de/installation

[Guzzi2Go]

I had a left side rear wheel bearing break after just ~5000km and I am wondering if the wheel was installed correctly after the bearing was replaced. I had the bearing removed and spacer between bearings measured, but it turned out to be ok.

 

The question is where the two washers/shims belong. I can't make it out neither from the explosion drawing, nor from the manual. Is it that:

- thin shim goes between swingarm and bevel drive (RH side)

- thick washer goes under the nut (between the nut and swingarm on the LH side)

 

If that is wrong, what would be the right order?

So what's what?

Well that didn't work!

 

from memoory the outer washer is about 3mm thick

 

Are the driveshaft trunnions aligned?

 

Is the needle roller in the RH end of the bevelbox clean and greased and rust free?

Thanks Pete!

Would that be the LH one, which goes between the nut and swingarm?

Yes

That's how it is on my bike.

PS If you haven't done it yet would be a good time to grease your shaft drive and do cush drive maintanence.

Thanks guys. Let see how far will the bearings take me this time. ;-)

 

I did the cush drive stuff. Removed half of the pucks, and greased and drilled the remainder.
