Breaking-in New Brake Pads and
Discs
Warning
Brake pads must always be replaced
as a wheel set. At the front, where
two calipers are installed on the same
wheel, replace all the brake pads in
both calipers.
Replacing individual pads will reduce
braking efficiency and may cause an
accident.
After replacement brake pads have
been installed, ride with extreme
caution until the new pads have
'broken in'.
New brake discs and pads require
a period of careful breaking-in that
will optimize the performance and
longevity of the discs and pads. The
recommended distance for breaking-
in new pads and discs is 200 miles
(300 km).
During this period, avoid extreme
braking, ride with caution and allow for
greater braking distances.
Brake Pad Wear Compensation
Warning
If the brake lever or pedal feels soft
when it is applied, or if the lever/pedal
travel becomes excessive, there may
be air in the brake lines and hoses or
the brakes may be defective.
It is dangerous to operate the
motorcycle under such conditions and
your authorized Triumph dealer must
rectify the fault before riding.
Riding with defective brakes may lead
to loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Disc and brake pad wear is
automatically compensated for and has
no effect on the brake lever or pedal
action. There are no parts that require
adjustment on the front and rear
brakes.
