step by step how should i change the front brake pads on my f4i


thanks

 

Good question...........seriously, most pads can be replaced with everything on the bike still, just look for the little pin/pins holding them in. Make sure you use (2)screwdrivers or something equivalent to press the calipers back against their stops before you remove the pads. Failure to do this will not allow you to insert your new pads in. Last note, before you get all excited and take off to ride, BE SURE TO PUMP YOUR BRAKES before you attempt to ride it. If you fail to do this, you might be suprised when you grab your brakes, and they won't work right away. Good Luck

 

Take the calipers off i think its like a 12mm and 14mm for the rear 2 bolts and 12mm for both front sides not sure though. then there are little allen bolts on the calipers take them out slide pin out and pads will fall out just make sure you look how they go together and slide the pins through the spring clip that sits at the top. Make sure you rest your calipers up on something so the lines still have slack while your working on em.

 

i checked out the pads and they have plenty of life left in them, so what else could be making this weird nosie from the front of the bike, can something be wrong w/ the rotors

thanks
