If you get it wrong the front brake goes out of line and binds. Don't ask me how I know

[billy192]

the caliper carrier does seem out of line. it needs to be closer to the fork, i think



as if it is too far toward the spokes any ideas

Billy

[billy192]

can the carrier bracket be on the wrong way round?

new honda part, same length as the old one. i can adjust and pull over 8 mm but it seems to be at angle as if either the disc is to close to the fork or the carrier is to far to the left

Hi Billy.
Should look like this, something is not assembled right

I'm not sure how the washer makes any difference.

Billy,
If its on the parts list you fit it the same way see www.cmsnl.com/honda-cb750k6-four-france_model14385/partslist/F08.html#results
Should be the same for all countries.Forgot to add mine has brand new pads in it as they wear the holder when adjusted right moves over the disc more.
Cheers

I'm not saying adding the washer is wrong, I just don't understand how it can affect the angle.

[billy192]

ok I must be confusing people 
it IS a 750 K6

I asked if (in the pic below) it was correct to be off set, the carrier to the left of the disc. as I assumed it should be directly over the top of the disc.



but Bitsa sent a Pic of his 750 and it is exactly thew same as mine. But for the washer, which i know makes no difference to the alignment.

so if you look at bith pics they are off set toward the left. 

so i am happy now.
Billy

thanks for all the help
