Wheel Removal

(Refer to the Safety Precautions on page 43.)
Front Wheel Removal
1. Raise the front wheel off the ground by placing a
support block under the engine.
2. Remove the speedometer cable set screw (1) and
disconnect the speedometer cable (2).
3. Loosen the axle holder nuts (3).
4. Unscrew the front axle shaft (4). Remove the wheel.
Do not depress the brake lever when the wheel is off
the motorcycle. The caliper piston will be forced out of
the cylinder with subsequent loss of brake fluid. If this
occurs, servicing of the brake system will be
necessary. See your Honda dealer for this service.
