FZS600 Fazer / Re: rear brake disk
« on: 26 June 2015, 04:55:59 pm »
I recently buggered a back wheel by trying to get the disc off. I did the recommended heat up with a blow torch to soften the loctite stuff, used an impact driver and still ended up snapping the heads off the bolts. Seems to me that Mr Yamaha really dropped a bollock when he thought that open ended steel bolts in a alloy wheel would be a sensible configuration. Now I have to buy another wheel and I intend to replace the steel bolts with something firmer, possibly titanium or unicorn horn. It still boggles my small brain that the japs still use the cheapest crap to bolt their wonderful machines together. Piss and moan, piss and moan etc
