[gazza750]

can anyone give me a fairly detailed description on how to r&r disc rotors on a HR30 as i have snapped a stud and need to replace it am going to re[lace all studs while i am at it

Take wheel off, take brake pads out, undo bolts on caliper, undo bolts of rotor, rotor will come straight off

Ok it must be connected somehow, i don't know how else a rotor would be held onto the axle. Got a pic?

On my MR30, the rotor is part of the hub, remove the caliper, remove center nut (axle nut), it all comes off in on piece

On my 240K, the rotor is bolted on to the hub, remove caliper, remove center nut (axle nut), it all comes off, undo 4 bolts holding rotor onto the hub (on the inside of the hub), give it a good smack with a big block of wood.

I don't know if the HR30 is the same,

Sometimes like wheels, rotors can also stick to the axle. Do what noddle said and give it a gentle hit from a hammer.

Find proper size blots for these two holes, and screw them in (at the same time or a little on one then a little on the other)
