Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Refitting the rear brake calliper
When replacing the brake pipes (33) or removing one of the rear braking system components, pay special attention to the position of the couplings on the pump and the calliper.
Warning
If incorrectly positioned, the hose can affect brake operation and foul moving parts. Position the hose as shown in the figure.
Remember to fit the copper faced sealing washers (23) to the hose end fitting when reconnecting the brake pipe to the brake calliper (15).
After orientating the fitting, lock the special screw (22) to a torque of 23 nm +/- 10% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).
If the speed sensor (1) was removed, fit it on the calliper holder bracket (a) with the spacer (8) and the washer (32) and tighten the screw (2) to a torque of 10 nm +/- 10% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).
Note
The gap between the sensor (1) and the brake disc fixing screw must be within 0.6 To 2.2 Mm.
If it is necessary to remove the calliper holder bracket (a) in order to refit it, see sec. 7 - 13, Refitting the rear wheel eccentric hub and rear wheel shaft.
Insert the rear brake calliper (15) on the brake disk, aligning it with the holes of the calliper mounting bracket (a).
Grease the screws (12) and tighten to the torque of 25 nm +/- 5% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).
In order to fit the pipe (33), the speed sensor (1) and the retaining clamps follow instructions in sect. 7-6, Flexible wiring/hoses positioning.
Removal of the rear brake disc
Remove the rear eccentric hub (sec. 7 - 13, Removal of the rear wheel
eccentric hub and rear wheel shaft).
Undo and remove the four fixing screws (13) of the brake disk to the wheel axle
and re ...

Refitting the expansion tank
If the support (15) has been removed, place the hose clamps (14) on the
bracket (15) orienting them as indicated.
Fully press the pins (a) to block the clamps (14) until pins surfaces (b) are at
the same level of the clamps (14) surfaces.
Apply recommended threadlocker to the thread of the ...
Refitting the timing gears
Before reassembling the removed parts, check timing gears (13) for wear.
Change, if necessary.
Important
The timing gears (13) must always be renewed as a pair.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Warning
When introducing the driven gear (b) check that the tongue (15) is
correctly fitted o ...
