Retro Tech & Electronics | Yamaha VSTAR 1100 Maintenance - Rear Brake Pad Replacement and Caliper Maintenance @retrotechandelectronics | Uploaded July 2021 | Updated October 2024, 23 hours ago.
Today will be the maintenance of the rear brakes for the VSTAR 1100, For this purpose the saddle bags have been removed, also, the top slip-on exhaust pipe has also been removed.
My Pads are the EBC FA88HH, they do not come with the support pad that the OEM may come with this is PN 1WG-25919-00-00
The brake pedal should not be touched once the process begins.
I've had no success on my bike pushing in the piston with my fingers I describe another method in the video with channel locks.
Note my use of minimal anti-seize is not called out in the official procedure, its just something I do.
Brakes should be bled tested adequately before operating the bike.
