limit

Min 0.04 in (Min 1 mm) (On-

ly friction material without

Checking rear brake pad

thickness

Dropping below the mini-

mum pad thickness leads

to reduced braking performance

and may result in damage to the

brakes.

In order to ensure the operating

reliability of the brake system,

make sure that the brake pads

are not worn beyond their mini-

mum thickness.

Make sure ground is level and

firm and park motorcycle.
