Front brake pads -
wear marking
The wear markings must
be clearly visible on the
brake pads.
If the wear indicating marks
are no longer clearly visible:
Have the brake pads re-
placed by a specialized
workshop, preferably an
authorized BMW Motorrad
retailer.
Checking brake pad
thickness at rear
Continuing to use brake
pads beyond the mini-
mum pad thickness leads to
reduced braking power and
under certain circumstances
to brake damage.
In order to ensure the operat-
ing reliability of the brake sys-
tem, make sure that the brake
pads are not worn beyond
their minimum thickness.
Make sure the ground is
level and firm and park the
motorcycle.
Check brake pads on rear
brake caliper with visual in-
spection from left.
