Simple and straightforward. Great video. No needless introduction or crappy music. Thank you.

I,ll second that, get straight to the task in hand.

Very straight forward and to the point. No frills, music or cussing (which I would have done), just simple instruction. Thanks

Very good video, with one addition, remove the lid from the brakefluidcontainer to make it easier to push back the piston

Thanks to your video I was confident enough to swap my breakpads at home. Worked perfectly. Thank you!

How is it possible that there are dislikes? Video is clear, practical and very professional. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for posting this video. It took me less that 10 minutes to do this last night - thanks to your vid. This method also works for the older model F650GS as well. (06/07)

I used to always remove the wheel on my '99 F650 to do this. Never even occurred to me to try it this way until I did a search on the same procedure for my new F700GS and found your vid. Thanks!

Just replaced front pads on girlfriends f650 twin, vid was spot on thanks, had a bit more trouble removing pin though, needed to lever against back of caliper to get the little rascal out. £15 job done.

Thank you! I have never changed the brake pads on anything before today. Your video made it a quick job.

Your video really helped me to change my BMW F800R rear brake pads while travelling. Thank you a lot!

Thanks for that, very helpful. Only other thing I'd do is put a little high temp anti-sieze grease on the pin to prevent a seized pin in the future.

Excellent video, took me exactly around 10 minutes. quick and easy. thank you

Great tutorial . Saved me from big trouble. Thank you

I have been riding bikes for years and have always taken the wheel off to do this job, thanks mate for a great and useful vid

Great video. Just saved me tons of time. I almost took apart the whole system. Thanks.

Brilliantly simple tutorial.

Very helpful, thanks! I'm in middle of South America now so I'll be using a small srewdriver also- no pin punch in my pannier.

Excellent!! Very clear explanation

Thanks for the vid!!! I just bought an 03 GS650 and it needed rear brakes. Unfortunately I didn't find you video until after I took my rear wheel off. Either way the pin had me stumped and this video works for those bikes too. Thanks again

Thanks for the save, was just about to remove the wheel!

Great video. I watched this right before replacing my pads with EBC organic pads in the rear. Overall pretty easy though a hard to get the new pads to fit between the caliper and rotor. My stock pads were worn to the metal.

worked nicely, thanks!

this saved my night on the nineT, man, thanks!!

Is it the same process on the Nine T?

Thank you for making this video. I’ll get my hands dirty to do it myself as well.

Glad to see I'm not the only one with a working one 🤣

Thank you very much! I replaced them myself :)

Thank you..was slightly worried about the process....but after watching this,it took like ten minutes..sweet..just use a bar of some type to gently prise back the hydraulic actuator.......assuming your fluid level allows for it....noticed the inner pad was a bit tight..but patiently tap it into position and works a charm,....Subbed liked etc..

thanks, I did mine in 5 minutes after watching yours.

very nice video thanks amigo

GOOD job! Cheers.

Muchas gracias amigo!!!! Very helpfull!!!

Cheers! just saved me some $$$

Thank you!

Thanks Much!

Retirer la roue arrière permet d’éviter de voiler le disque. Car il y a un risque en venant frapper sur la goupille pour l’enlever, de reporter la force de frappe sur le disque et donc de le tordre légèrement (Imperceptible au toucher). Ce qui va créer, lors de manœuvres a pieds, des bruits de grincements lors de rotation de la roue. J’ai suivi cette vidéo… la prochaine fois, j’enlève la roue…

I wish all videos on KZread were this professional and clear. No lame music or intro graphics. Classy, man. The downvotes are all from Vladimir Putin's trolls.

nice helpful thanks

OBRIGADO !!

awesome video thanks! Leslie aka soph9!

Hey - giodog2000 - my caliper will not slide over - it is seized up... options? I cannot get enough room to insert the pad on the far side of the disc...

we are having a great trip...both bikes have new pads...my bike there is a rubbing noise...tried to make an adjustment and it helped but still makes a noise without braking...normal? Your video has come in handy as I knew it was....

Don't push the caliper back in until you've cleaned it.

giodoog...we are using your video now to change our rear pads that we bought from Happy Trails..they seem really tight especially the inside pad....is this normal?

Nice tutorial! I just changed my pads but I cant seem to push either left or right the caliper as you did on 1:05. Seems like the brake caliper is not floating at all. What could be the problem?

Hey vag vag. I had this problem once. It was stuck due to some dirt in the caliper. It took some hits on it so it could move properly. A little bit of power worked for me! ;-)

such an easy system, why are all bikes not like this? xD

hey thanks for the vid. I have the same problem as the last commenter, I'm not able to push the caliper side to side as you do at 1:05. There's barely any float it seems so I'm not able to fit the new inside pad in between the caliper and rotor. Any suggestions?

in case anyone else finds themselves in the same problem I had, I found the front slide post which the caliper mounts onto the caliper carrier assembly with was seized and the caliper could not float. Had to: 1. Remove old brake pads as instructed above 2. Remove rear wheel 3. Undo speed sensor so that you can access the rear slide post bolt 4. The rear slide post threads into the caliper carrier piece (the carrier is held on the swingarm by a nub on the swingarm and the axle through the wheel. I unscrewed the slide from the carrier, then pulled the rubber gasket through the caliper. I found that this one was not corroded and not seized. 5. With the rear slide post removed, I could rotate the caliper around somewhat on the carrier assembly. I found the rubber gasket around the front slide post was stuck inbetween the slide post and the female end on the carrier. I had to destroy the gasket by cutting it and eventually worked it out. I sprayed wd40 in and cut the gasket little by little to get all the rubber out. 6. The caliper still did not slide freely but I was able to move it a little more, and after spraying more wd40 and letting it sit for a while, I was finally able to work the slide free. It was pretty corroded and obviously the cause of the caliper not being able to float. I cleaned it up with scotch brite and wd40 and a little sandpaper. now I need to get that stupid gasket I had to destroy before putting everything back together. Will be greasing the sliders before they go back in.

+Adam Paiva This just happened to me! I could not replace the inside pad, no matter how hard I try to push and pry open. Gave up on it after much effort and took to dealership feeling pretty lausy about it, till they told me that it was stuck, due to possible water getting in the bottom pin. They took it out and had to lubricate the thing. They told me that is a common problem for people that do lot of creek crossing, dust, etc. Cost me $100 labor for them to fix it.... but I learned something new. Hope this helps someone. Cheers!

Called a shop yesterday to get a quote for replacing my pads. $75 in labor!!!!! He said it was because "it's a BMW and we have to take our time and do it right". Smh.

Its different if this model has ABS?

No, the same system on this end. ABS is basically the computer (chip), a pump to modulate the brake, and the sensor on the wheels to tell when the tire stops rotating.

I think the two bad critics are from the BMW service points!!!

Try with an 800r.. a pain in the a**

Thank you !
