ATLANTIC 300 i.e.
System check
Check brake pads for wear following the instruc-
tions on the scheduled maintenance table. Disc
brake pad wear depends on the use, the riding
style and the roads.
To carry out a quick pad check:
•
Park the vehicle on its centre stand.
•
Carry out a visual check between
brake calliper and pads, from the front
bottom side for the front brake calliper
«1»; from the bottom rear side for the
rear brake calliper «2».
•
Replace both brake pads when the fric-
tion material (even if in one brake pad
only) is worn to about 1.5 mm (0.05 in).
Front pad «3».
Rear pad «4».
NOTE
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION REFERS TO ONE BRAK-
ING CIRCUIT BUT APPLIES TO BOTH.
CAUTION
CHECK BRAKE PADS FOR WEAR MAINLY BEFORE EACH
RIDE.
CAUTION
EXCESSIVE WEAR OF THE FRICTION MATERIAL MAKES
THE PAD METAL SUPPORT GET INTO CONTACT WITH
THE DISC, WHICH RESULTS IN A METALLIC NOISE AND
SPARKS IN THE CALLIPER; THEREFORE, BRAKING EF-
FICIENCY AND DISC SAFETY AND INTEGRITY ARE AT
RISK.
