REAR BRAKE
Checking
To check the rear brake wear, simply obser-
ve the caliper from above, where it is possi-
ble to see the ends of the two pads where
there should be a layer of lining which is at
least 2 mm thick. If it is thinner than this,
replace the pads immediately.
Note
Check the brakepads at the intervals given in the
table on page 71.
Replacing the brakepads
To replace the pads, proceed as follows:
- Remove the wheel.
- Remove the caliper from the swingarm.
- Unscrew screw A.
- Remove the pads and replace them.
- For reassembly, proceed in reverse order.
On screw A, it is advisable to use an appro-
priate medium resistance locking agent.
If the brake disc is removed, apply the ap-
propriate locking agent to the screws when
reassembling.
