Removing and Replacing the Front Wheel of a Yamaha X300

Model: Yamaha X300
Part: Wheel

Video tutorial

Follow these steps to remove and replace the front wheel of a Yamaha X300 scooter. Start by placing the scooter on its centre stand.

Use a socket spanner to undo the hub bolt. Lift the wheel off the ground with a jack and slide the hub out of the forks.

Carefully remove the wheel, paying attention to the right and left spacers. To make reassembly easier, it is recommended to also remove the mudguard, although this is not necessary.

Begin reassembly by inserting the spacers into the wheel and fit it into the fork, ensuring the disc fits into the brake caliper. This may require some patience and dexterity.

Insert the hub after applying a thin layer of grease, then place the washer and nut, tightening it to 52 Nm with a torque wrench. Finally, refit the mudguard.
