Checking brake pad wear and changing brake pads

Warning
Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces if spilled on them. It can also be very harmful if it comes into
contact with the skin or with the eyes; in the event of accidental contact, wash the affected area with
abundant running water.
Important
On handing over the motorcycle after changing the brake pads, inform the customer that the front
brake must be used gently for the first 100 km to allow the pads to bed in completely.
Checking front brake pad wear
Look through the slot in the caliper clip (1) to make sure the groove in the brake pad friction material
(4) is still visible.
