  • When setting up a disk brake set up on your Honda Ruckus it’s super important to space the wheel and brakes correctly using spacers, shims and washers. This video will show you step by step how to alignment your front wheel and brake caliper. This procedure will work with all motorcycles and scooters.

    Good info, I always shim with thin washers, equally, any space left over so when tight it dose not pinch the forks so they move smoothly without any binding.

    Great video brother crystal clear explanation if possible do a video for rear wheel as well with disc brake , and one more question in some bikes wheels are a bit offset from factory itself in that case how will we center if possible make a video ❤❤❤

    Im doing this soon. I have been having issues with this. It rubs a bit to much and at certain speeds causes a harmonic vibration... whomp whomp whomp sound. Everyone pay attention to this, I wish I had this months ago!

    • @RollingWrench
      @RollingWrench  Před 3 lety +1

      Sounds like your brake caliper is rubbing slightly. Center that sucker up you should be good. I would also deglaze the pads with some light sand paper

    Hey Matt
    Love all the info you put out here so much help to us ppl! I have a 2020 maddog trike. It’s a piece of work. I work in her daily I knew nothing about scooters when I bought it but I’ve pretty much figured everything out from you and a couple other folks here
    I seem to have tore up the side and spider gears. I’ve searched the internet for over a month. No one seeing to have a clue as to where to get them.
    Do you have a line or know where I would go to get new spool gears any info greatly appreciated

    Thank you! Ya I will be doing this and pulling the washers. Measuring them and making the spacers solid on both sides. I am strange like that. Both will work just fine. Being a machinist has given me the eye for detail. Makes me respect the details that others put into there build. Once again thank you for doing what you do bro.

    Matt, have you ever come across pads being to thick for the rotor to fit? I bought an online kit several years ago and the rotor won’t fit the caliper unless I force it.. at that point it’s like having the brakes permanently locked

      No, it should spin freely. Our spacers are designed for our hub. If you don’t have our hub you will need o space it accordingly
