Pics of brake pad change?

I just spent the past hour searching the forum of pictures of changing the brake pads on a 6th gen. I'm going to be changing my pads soon and was hoping that some one had pictures since this will be my first brake job. If you have pics please post...Thanks:thumbsup:

 

Sorry, no pics. I can offer a little advice though, do not squeeze, or allow your children to squeeze the brake lever with out the rotor between the pads.
Brakes pads are really easy to change. The only problem that I could imagine you could have is too much fluid in your tanks after you replace the pads. It's a good time to change the fluid as well. There is bound to be a "how to" on that.
Good luck.

I don't know about the 6G, but the 4G is a 10 minute procedure to replace the front pads:

1.) Pull the pad retaining bolt/pin at the bottom, pads fall out to the ground.
2.) Push the caliper against the rotor to push the pistons back in.
3.) Install the new pads from the bottom, and put the pin back in.
4.) Repeat for other side.

The way these are designed leads me to believe that they are "pit stop" style brakes, and that they were made this way to change quickly during an endurance race. I think that the guy changing the brakes would be done before the fuel tank was full... 2 minutes, tops.

 

6th Gen is easy, Remove the two bolts holding the caliper to the front folk. slide the caliper off the disk, Using a 8mm socket lossing the pin that hold the brake pads in place, Push a light pressure on the two pads and slowly slight the pin off from the hole. Replace the new pads in same order. Re-install the caliper back on the folk. I would clean the 3 pitons on the caliper before put them back on. Hope this help

 

Definitely clean the pistons on the calipers before installing the new pads. A lot of crap gets stuck in there and can affect performance.

 

??? ABS Model must be different from that. The slide pin on my bike was a 5mm allen.

Here a how to for the rear:
