Rear brake bad replacement tip
 
Hello,
I Was doing a few bits to my bike today, and being a bit of a noob when it comes to motorcycle mechanics I consulted the service guide before touching anything.

One thing I noticed was the guide says to remove the rear wheel when replacing the pads. I had a look around the bike and couldn't figure out why.

So I removed the clip and tapped the pin through with the caliper still in place. Took 5minutes to replace the pads.

Hope this helps someone.

:023: Yep. No need to remove the wheel to do the pads.

personally I find pad replacement a good time to strip the caliper down and give it all a good service.
