Z1B Rear wheel spindle direction.
Posted: Sun Aug 03, 2025 2:53 pm
Hi All,
I'm just refitting my rear wheel after fitting a new tyre and I've noticed that in two different manuals (Haynes and Kawasaki - Z Series) that the spindle is fitted in opposite directions I.e one has the nut on the left (sprocket) side and one has the nut on the right (brake) side.
Which is right? Or doesn't it matter - my thoughts but you never know!
Cheers,
Ian.
