Thanks... This video saved me a lot of money... The bike shop wanted to charge me $325.00 to put on some $70 dollar brakes. Because I watched your video 3times ,and it only took me 15 minutes. Once again thanks
Just received some Galfer rear pads (k7 1000) advertised with 3 grooves on the pad side but I’ve been sent solid Galfer pads instead. Is there a difference and if so what is the difference? Have tried researching but it always throws back results for discs not pads. Any help much appreciated.
Is it normal to hear a "knocking" sound after changing the brake pads? maybe my rotor is slightly warped? (2006 GSXR 1000) I only rode a couple of miles after changing them so maybe i need to wear them in, but i've never had this whilst changing pads on all of my previous bikes?
You shouldn't hear knocking from your calipers. Either something is loose or if the rotor is warped you'll hear a rhythmic scraping. Double check the bolts and connections.
@@PartzillaParts Hey, I very much appreciate your reply. I have re-tightened the caliper bolts to 38nm spec and I will take it out for a spin tomorrow after I have flushed the coolant and replaced spark plugs (your guides have helped a lot, thanks). I think i may have tightened them too much originally. the brake pad pins were all seized and i had to drill them all out and replace, so i only tightened them hand tight, with a 1/4 turn afterwards, so maybe i need to tighten the pins so spec also
Hey , thanks for the great lessons.I have one question , is there a link on buying the torque wrench you used in this video ? the sound one? thanks a lot and Please keep up the great work you do !
There are multiple versions with sound. Here is one from our site. www.partzilla.com/product/aftermarket/3WCT-BIKEMASTER-RJ40583?q_ref=audible%20torque%20wrench
Hi, I have one problem, after I changed brake pards I saw that the brake liquid leaks a little bit on caliper was not to much, but when I went for a ride I realized that the brake is working jerky like ABS.What should I do, brake bleeding?
anyone know where to get those three T-40 bolts(housing bolts)? all the other bolts are available everywhere except those damn three bolts hiding in the back of the caliper. Thank you in advance
Hello ambesa1! it depends on the caliper you have on the bike. if you have the Brembo its only available with the assembly. if you are running the Tokico here you go! www.partzilla.com/catalog/suzuki/motorcycle/2007/gsx-r1000/front-caliper its # 5 on the diag. hope this helps!
buen dia, saludos desde VENEZUELA, tienes video de cbr1000rr 2007, gracias,, good day, greetings from VENEZUELA, you have video of cbr1000rr 2007, thanks
If there is enough room, it shouldn't matter too much. If you overfill, it will either cause constant pressure on the pads or spill out the top if the cap is off.
Never pull off the cap. There is a seal under the cap that moves down with the oil level. When pushing the pads back the brake fluid will fill the master cylinder and pushes the rubber bladder back. The air is on the top side of the bladder and will be pushed out. This part of the design and all master cylinders have this bladder seal on top
If there is 1 thing I hate it’s when mechanics try to teach normal people how to do something and they use fancy expensive tools when there is no need for it and that not the average person watching this will have that tool it pisses me off
I would be more pissed that these are brakes and they are teaching and not showing all that needs to be considered when doing brakes. These guys are not licenced mechanics based on alot of knowledge is not being shared. This is down right scary.
Basics are ok but man clean up the rotor and decrease the wheel and all parts. This was a hilarious repair as the new pads will be contaminated and will result in similar brake problem.

Awesome! Glad we could help!
I watch how to do this from 2 other people and this video was the easiest to understand ! Hallelujah
You have the best tutorials !
You are absolutely amazing bro !!!
you can really save a guys time from looking into manuals etc !!
keep up with the good work !!
He didn't clean the rotor of oil and contaminants. He put a dirty screwdriver spread the brake pads.
I always clean the rotors with first gas then methylated spirit to be sure the grease is gone. Handsanding may be overkill but I do that as well.
Sand paper is a good idea
Thanks brother for good knowledge
Why didn't you clean the disk on the side with the blown fork seal before refitting the calliper fitted with fresh pads?
Love Partszilla!
Do I need to bleed the brakes if I'm just changing the pads ?
2021 Gsxr1000r same idea in this video?
Not sure if you covered this in another video, but with contaminated brake pads, why didn’t you clean the rotors or explain the need to do so ?
And the other parts plus the wheel. If your a shop and you replace seals the clean up should be part of the job.

Quick Question. Is this same process for the K7 750?
Thank you
Same process with most sportbike brakes.

Thanks mate 👏
Is this same specs for 08 Gsxr600
Man I wish I would have bought my pads from y’all......damnit

Does the brand of the pads raelly makes any differnts
The composite of the pads does, brands are really a big deal. Just dont go super cheap on brake pads.

If you have fluid on your rotor, it can cause it to stick. I would clean all the surfaces thoroughly and test it again.
Shouldn't you use some brake lube on the sliders?
Inspect clean and use an approved brake lube by suzuki. Replace if the pins are worn.
anyone know where to get those three T-40 bolts(housing bolts)? all the other bolts are available everywhere except those damn three bolts hiding in the back of the caliper. Thank you in advance

Should we remove the cap to the fluid reservoir when we push the piston back in to let the air out
If there is enough room, it shouldn't matter too much. If you overfill, it will either cause constant pressure on the pads or spill out the top if the cap is off.
Partzilla ok thank you
Never pull off the cap. There is a seal under the cap that moves down with the oil level. When pushing the pads back the brake fluid will fill the master cylinder and pushes the rubber bladder back. The air is on the top side of the bladder and will be pushed out. This part of the design and all master cylinders have this bladder seal on top
Differences?
I have a lower caliper bolt that will not come out. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove it?
Try some pentrating oil to lube it up a little.
Don't lube it. Take it to a licenced mechanic.

Buen video ! Pero la moto esta echa una mierda!
