I know why it was so clean because the pads aren't working lol

The caliper pistons need to be pushed back into the caliper before installing the new pads to make room for their increased thickness. Opening the brake fluid reservoir will allow the pistons to be pushed back.The fluid level will rise with the piston pressure, watch out for overflow. 😁👍

They're not non-exstant. They're organic, they use organic resin as an adhesive. The most gentle type for rotors and the best all-round type, appropriate for wide range of users. However they're not the best in extreme conditions. I recommend organic pads for commuting and touring, and race pads (like EBC HH ExtremePro) for track.

I'm not sure about for motorcycles but my car came with ceramic pads, and I daily and autocross with them. They do occasionally sqeal a bit but other than that I don't see any advantage to a semi metallic or organic.

Interesting I had thought I recalled hearing that Yamaha’s brakes feel like wood even with better pads. Great that there’s an easy upgrade. Thought you needed a better master cylinder or something

Why take the caliper off? Do the pads in place

Your one of the only people I’ve ever seen wear rubber gloves to remove brake callipers 😂

The brakes in my 2014 r1 do in fact suck on track

you can clean the calipers with soap and water. You aren't contaminating the pad material. I've cleaned rotors a lot of different ways and never affected the length of bedding, brakes will just be bad for a bit.

Better is to have better brakes at beginning, you know.

Sometimes, it is not the brakepads but sometimes the fluid/moisture inside the brakeline. Dot3 and Dot4 fluids absorbs moisture making brakes feel like meh. Try to flush once in a while and brakes feel more grabby. Also try applying silicone grease on the pistons (not on the pads!) after cleaning the caliper with brake cleaner

Yes to second no to first. Yamaha brake pads are just really not very grabby. They last for ages but dont brake mega hard.

Shouldn't you lube the retainer pin and back of the pads?

@AChubbyWombat

10 ай бұрын

Pin. Yes. Side of the pads where they contact the calliper. Yes. Back of the pad. Depends who you ask. Probably not if they have the metal plate with the cut outs on the back.

very important to spread the old pads before taking them out when the new ones go in you may not have enough clearance to get on ur rotor instead of prying on the new pads or the pistons use the worn pads to spread the pistons

You forgot the most critical part that caliper will not go back on until you compressed it

Pads really don’t increase braking capability, more so decrease brake fade more then anything. General rule of thumb, upgrade brake fluids first for track, don’t even really need pads for track use unless u track the car all day without letting it cool.

So can I use wd40 if I don't have brake cleaner ?

No need to remove calipers to replace the brake pads bro... just one pin 👍🏻

Wait... so yamaha doesn't use track brake pads? Instead a commuter version? If I remember it correctly track type parts are bad at low speeds but with the high speed temp goes up and it gets better from there. Commuter pads works best at low speeds and reduces efficiency at high speeds due to temperature

First time bro didn't roast gixxer riders😂

I don't think I've ever driven anything new enough to have stock brakes on it many years/miles usually either cheap aftermarket's or stop techs for me

Swapping pads and Not the rotor (or at least turning the rotor when possible) is a pure Squid move. You won't be bedding the pads into the rotor, you''ll be bedding the rotor grooves into the pads and creating a horrible mating surface.
