Maintenance
Brake Disc Inspection / Cleaning
1. Inspect brake pads as outlined on page 39.
2. Inspect brake discs for nicks, scratches, cracks or
other damage. Inspect the thickness of each brake
disc at four or more locations around the disc. If
any disc is worn to the minimum thickness at the
thinnest point, or if a disc is damaged, see your
VICTORY dealer for replacement.
3. Clean discs if minor squeaks develop due to dirt or
dust. Apply VICTORY Brake Cleaner (P/N
2872191) to a clean shop towel and wipe disc. DO
NOT allow brake cleaner to contact painted or
plastic parts. Read all precautions on the label.
Wheel Spokes (if equipped)
Inspect both wheels for loose, bent, broken or missing spokes (if
equipped). To identify loose spokes, grasp each spoke and try to
move it side to side or up and down. All spokes should be
equally tight and have the same amount of flex. Tighten loose
spokes and replace bent, broken or missing spokes (see an
authorized VICTORY dealer).
WARNING! Spokes adjusted or replaced improperly could distort the
wheel, make the motorcycle difficult to handle, and cause loss of
control.
Wheel Inspection
Inspect both wheels for cracks or damage and replace damaged wheels promptly. Do not
operate the motorcycle if wheels are damaged or cracked. See the VICTORY Service Manual
or your authorized VICTORY dealer.
