Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your motorcycle is safely supported on a stand.
- Remove the wheel and caliper assembly.
- Carefully remove the old brake pads.
- Clean the caliper mounting points and piston area.
- Install the new EBC FA209/2 Organic Brake Pads, ensuring they are seated correctly.
- Reassemble the caliper and wheel.
Compatibility:
Always verify that the EBC FA209/2 part number is the correct fitment for your specific motorcycle make, model, and year before purchase. Consult your motorcycle's service manual or a reputable parts catalog.
Care:
- Periodically inspect brake pads for wear. Replace when the friction material reaches the minimum thickness.
- Keep the braking system clean. Avoid using high-pressure water jets directly on the caliper.
- Allow pads to bed in properly after installation for optimal performance and longevity. This typically involves a series of moderate stops from moderate speeds, avoiding hard braking for the first 100-200 miles.
