PAD CLEANING
Make sure that there are no traces of brake fluid or
oil on the pads or discs. Use alcohol to clean the pads
or discs from any traces of fluid or oil.
If the pads cannot be cleaned properly, replace them.
PAD INSTALLATION
Refit the pads following the removal procedure in
reverse order.
a
WARNING
Do not ride the motorcycle until the
brake lever or pedal is fully effective.
"Pump" the brake lever or pedal until
the pads are against the discs. The
brake will not operate when the lever or
pedal is activated for the first time.
DISC CLEANING
A poor braking efficiency can also be caused by the
presence of oil on the disc. Oil or grease on the disc
can be removed using a high flammability index
solvent such as acetone or similar products.
