V1 Detailed Rear Brake Photos?

[KingChuck24]

I am having some troubled installing the rear brakes, I was wondering if anyone had more detailed photos. Most of the threads I have seen go over mounting the first bracket well but when it comes to mounting the actual piston I am very confused.

First thing is make sure they are on the correct side, the mounting holes are the same so it will let you mess that up. The key is that the bleeder screw needs to be on the upper end. When bleeding brakes air does not like to travel downward.

Best I have. On the picture with the pads and spring, they should be swapped.

My issue is the piston assembly wiggles around. Is there something that it mounts to that makes it solid?

The brakes shoe housing is designed to float and follow the brake rotor.

The housing should not have rotation movement.

Ok sounds good, it does not have any rotational movement but it does move back and forth a little which I guess if it floats it is supposed to do that.

It’ll tighten some once you bleed the brakes.

missing the weird spring thing too. That goes from the pad and caliper oddly.
