To remove the front brake pads, set the bike on the stand, open the brake fluid resin cap and put a syringe or a suction gun to the reservoir and suck the fluid down to a half tank. Slightly unscrew the wheel lugs, lift the front part of the car, and put it on jackstands locking the wheels at the other end. Lift off the wheels so that you can view the
Brake Disc; were there to be need of machining, then you should further take off the disc so that can have access to the pads. Disconnect the brake caliper and use brake system cleaner to clean the caliper and install it back with the help of a drain pan to collect the accumulated matters. Loosen and take out the caliper mounting bolts with hand tools but hold the guide pin with an open end wrench not to turn round. Do not sever the
Brake Line, unless replacing the caliper, and if the caliper is removed but the pads are not replaced the position of the inner and outer pad must be recorded. Scan brake lines and fittings and change any broken clamp. Insert a large C-clamp to force the piston down into the caliper and tight on it and then remove the anti-rattle springs and brake pads; it is important to look at the position of the wear sensors. Before refitting the guide pins should be cleaned and lubricated and should be refitted in such a way that the pad containing the wear sensor is placed in the correct manner and new springs/ retainers are fixed. Regarding the rear brake pads remove the brake fluid, support the vehicle, and, if available, engage the EPB service mode. Before removing the caliper clean it and make sure it is properly supported. There are new brake pads and their support plates as well the anti-seize compound in the metal to metal contact areas shall be fitted. It is recommended that the caliper piston should be rotated fully inward with a help of a caliper piston retraction tool, so that the notches face the inner pins on the brake pad. Remove the dust caps from the guide pins and clean and lubricate the same guide pins before mounting the caliper back over the pads to tighten the mount bolts. Last but not the least, apply the brake pedal for the pads to come in contact with the disc and check the brake fluid level and put some if required. If the vehicle being serviced has an Electronic Parking Brake, set it right for the new brake pads.
