Suzuki GSX-R 1000 Owners Manual: Brake pad
Front
Rear
Inspect the front and rear brake pads to see if they are worn down to the grooved wear limit line 1. If a pad is worn to the grooved wear limit line, it must be replaced with a new one. After replacing either the front or rear brake pads, the brake lever or pedal must be pumped several times. This will extend the pads to their proper position.
 Warning
Inspect brake pad wear before each use. Ask your suzuki dealer or qualified mechanic to replace brake pads if any pad is worn to the limit. |
| Warning
Before riding, "pump" the brake repeatedly until brake pads are pressed against the brake disks and proper lever/ pedal stroke and firm feel are restored. |
Note
: do not squeeze/depress the brake lever/pedal when the pads are not in their positions. It is difficult to push the pistons back and brake fluid leakage may result.
Brake fluid
Check the brake fluid level in both front and rear brake fluid reservoirs. If
the level in either reservoir is below the lower mark, inspect for brake pad
wear and leaks.
