Rear Brake Wear Inspection

The use of proprietary brands of brake
pads is not recommended as these
may have a reduced carrier plate
thickness when compared with the
Triumph genuine parts.
Brake pads with an incorrect carrier
plate thickness can potentially become
dislodged from the caliper body as
they wear, leading to brake failure,
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Failure to follow the advice above
could result in serious injury or death.
Brake pads must be inspected in
accordance
requirements and replaced if worn to, or
beyond the minimum service thickness.
