Front brake pad thickness
The brake pads must have
clearly visible wear marks
(arrows).
If the wear indicating mark is
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.
Visually check brake pad
thickness 1 from right side.
Rear brake pad thickness
Brake disk must not be vis-
ible through bore hole of
inner brake pad.
