Checking rear brake pad
thickness
Dropping below the mini-
mum pad thickness leads
to reduced braking performance
and may result in damage to the
brakes.
In order to ensure the operating
reliability of the brake system,
make sure that the brake pads
are not worn beyond their mini-
mum thickness.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Check brake pads on rear
brake caliper with visual
inspection from left.
Rear brake-pad wear limit
0.04 in (1 mm) (Only friction
material without carrier plate)
Brake disk must not be vis-
ible through bore hole of in-
ner brake pad.
If brake pad thickness is not suf-
ficient:
Have the brake pads replaced
by a specialized workshop,
preferably an authorized BMW
Motorrad retailer.
