Introduction

This tutorial provides a straightforward guide on how to replace the front brake pads on a Yamaha Vixion motorcycle. Performing this maintenance task yourself can save you time and money, and it ensures your bike remains safe and functional.

Step 1: Gather Tools and Materials

Before starting the replacement process, make sure you have the following tools and materials ready:

Tools

• T50 star key wrench: Essential for removing the brake caliper.
• Pliers: Useful for handling small components.
• Screwdriver: Optional, but can help with loosening any stubborn screws.

Materials

• New brake pads: Ensure you have the correct size for the Vixion model.

Step 2: Prepare Your Motorcycle

• Safety first: Ensure the motorcycle is parked on a flat surface and is stable.
• Remove the front wheel if necessary: This might make access to the brake caliper easier.

Step 3: Remove the Brake Caliper

1. Locate the caliper: It is usually positioned near the front wheel.
2. Use the T50 star key wrench to loosen and remove the bolts securing the caliper.
3. Carefully slide the caliper off the brake disc. Be cautious not to damage the brake line.

Step 4: Replace the Brake Pads

1. Remove the old brake pads: Slide them out of the caliper. Note their orientation for proper installation of the new pads.
2. Insert the new brake pads: Ensure they are positioned correctly in the caliper.
3. Check the caliper piston: If it is pushed out too far, gently compress it back into the caliper using a suitable tool.

Step 5: Reinstall the Brake Caliper

1. Align the caliper back onto the brake disc.
2. Secure it by tightening the bolts with the T50 star key wrench. Ensure they are snug but do not overtighten.
3. Double-check everything: Ensure that the caliper is properly aligned and the brake pads are seated correctly.

Step 6: Test the Brakes

• Before taking the motorcycle for a ride, pump the brake lever a few times to ensure the pads seat correctly against the disc.
• Conduct a quick safety check to ensure everything is functioning properly.
