Use and maintenance
Insert the new pads and clip (3). Slide in the pad retaining pin (2) and secure it in position with the circlip (1).
Operate the brake pedal repeatedly so that the pads are bedded in against the disc by the force of the brake fluid.
Check that the brake fluid level in the reservoir (4) is between the MIN and MAX marks. If not, unscrew the reservoir cover (4)
and top up with the recommended brake fluid.
Notes
If it proves difficult to change the brake pads, first remove the caliper from the motorcycle (Sect. G 6, Removal of the rear brake
system).
Warning
As the brake calipers are components of vital importance to the safety of the motorcycle, refer to the instructions in
Sect. G 3, Removal of the front brake system and Sect. G 6, Removal of the rear brake system, and in particular, on reassembly,
remember to tighten the caliper screws to the specified torque (Sect. C 3, Frame torque settings).
