Brake-pad wear limit,
front
min 1 mm (Friction pad only,
z
without backing plate)

Checking rear brake pad
thickness
Brake pads worn past
the minimum permissible
brake-pad thickness can cause
a reduction in braking efficiency
and under certain circumstances
they can cause damage to the
brake system.
In order to ensure the dependab-
ility of the brake system, do not
permit the brake pads to wear
past the minimum permissible
brake-pad thickness.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand.
Visually inspect brake pads 1
from the rear to ascertain their
thickness.
