After warping my front brake disc and being in the process of sourcing a new one I need help in getting the existing disc and front wheel off:

It's a KTM Supermoto and I can't get a Haynes manual for it so I've no idea how to do the job...

Any help/tips are much appreciated Thumbs Up

At a guess .........

Hold brake on and 'crack' brake disc mounting bolts

Unbolt brake caliper from fork leg and tie up out of the way.

Remove front wheel spindle nut. Slacken pinch bolts if fitted and remove spindle. Remove wheel. Lay wheel flat and remove disc mounting bolts.


Re-assemble in reverse order

Pump brake lever after refitting caliper to bring the pads out.
