Brakes
Warning
Brake pads must always be replaced
as a wheel set. At the front, where two
calipers are fitted on the same wheel,
replace all the brake pads in both
calipers.
Replacing individual pads will reduce
braking efficiency and may cause an
accident.
After replacement brake pads have
been fitted, ride with extreme caution
until the new pads have 'broken in'.
Brake pads must be inspected
in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements and replaced
if worn to, or beyond the minimum
service thickness.

If the lining thickness of any brake
pad (front or rear brakes) is less than
1.5 mm (0.06 in), that is, if the brake pad
has worn down to the bottom of the
grooves, replace all the brake pads on
that wheel.
Street Scrambler, Speed Twin,
Street Twin and Thruxton RS
If the lining thickness of any brake pad
is less than 1.0 mm (0.04 in) (front) or
1.5 mm (0.06 in) (rear), replace all the
brake pads on that wheel.
Note
Street Scrambler, Speed Twin and

An area of the front brake backing
plate is raised and will cause the front
brake to squeal as notification to the
rider when the brake pad(s) are below
the minimum thickness. Replace all the
brake pads on that wheel.
