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
longevity of the discs and pads. The
recommended distance for breaking-
in new pads and discs is 200 miles
(300 km).
During this period,
braking, ride with caution and allow for
greater braking distances.

brake pads, check that the carrier
plate of the brake pad is at least
0.18 in (4.5 mm) thick.
Mounting brake pads with the carrier
plate less than 0.18 in (4.5 mm) thick
may result in brake failure due to the
possible loss of the brake pad as it
wears.
