rear rim heating up fz-s

02-06-2012, 02:04 PM

Hello, i need some help on this please help. I own a fz-s (2009). My rear wheel hub seems to be heating up with riding.

Frankly i just started noticing it. I'm not sure if it was there before. I started noticing it after i had re-fitted the wheel after removing it for sprocket bush change. It heats up even on 10 km rides. If the distance is more than 30km it's being heated very much.

1. break shoes are in perfect condition.

2.my tyre is almost done.

3.there is no oil in the chain...this may not be the problem i guess!!

4.and the tyre has also free movement.

What might be the problem??

Check if the rear Tyre is rotating freely,if not the brakes may be binding because the adjustment nut is tightened to much.

Check it and report back.
