CHECKING THE BRAKE PAD WEAR
Carefully read p. 26 (BRAKE FLUID-
recommendations), (DISC BRAKES)
and p. 39 (MAINTENANCE).
NOTE
The following information refers to
a single braking system, but is valid for
both.
Check the brake pad wear after the first
1000 km (625 mi) and successively every
2000 km (1250 mi).
The wear of the brake pads depends on
the use, on the kind of drive and on the
road.

WARNING
Check the wear of the brake pads
especially before every trip.
To carry out a rapid checking of the pad
wear, proceed as follows:
◆
Position the vehicle on the centre stand.
◆
Carry out a visual check between the
brake disc and the pads, proceeding:
FRONT BRAKE CALIPER
√ On the rear part, after removing the
cover (1).
FRONT BRAKE CALIPER
√ From below, on the front part, for the left
pad (A).
√ From above, on the front part, for the
right pad (B).

REAR BRAKE CALIPER
√ From below, on the rear part, for both
pads (C).
The excessive wear of the friction
material would cause the contact of the
pad metal support with the disc, with

production of sparks from the caliper;
