Pantlee77, Ignore the peasants  Here is page 2-64 out of the 2007 service manual: 1. Using isopropyl alcohol, clean the frame for the new puck. Wait a minimum of 5 minutes for the alcohol to evaporate. NOTE Do not sand or scuff the surface where the puck will be installed. 2. See Figure 2-90. Identify the left and right side pucks by forward facing directional point. 3. With the adhesive backing in place, locate the puck on the frame making contact all around its perimeter and fitting the horizontal crease and V-shaped edge. 4. See Figure 2-91. With a pencil, outline the upper rear and lower rear corners on the frame. NOTE The puck can only be applied once. If the puck is peeled off, it will have reduced adhesive strength when it is re-applied to the frame. 5. Starting from the edge and working toward the center,carefully peel off the adhesive backing from the puck. NOTE Peeling away the backing may loosen the adhesive in the center of the puck. This will not affect the final seal. 6. Align the corners with the pencil marks and tack the puck to the frame at the corners. 7. From the tacked corners, pivot the puck onto the frame keeping the directional point aligned with the horizontal crease. 8. See Figure 2-92. For 60 seconds, press evenly around the perimeter to firmly seal the puck. Allow the puck to cure for at least one hour before riding. 9. Erase the pencil marks. The pictures don't add all that much to the procedure. Also, try the search function if you have not already. I found a few good tips. |
