Motorcycle brake pad replacement cycle
The replacement cycle of motorcycle brake pads often depends on the operation of the vehicle, the type of vehicle, the vehicle weight, the type of brake pads, etc. Depends on the specific situation. For example, it is often the case in real life that one type of brake pad can be used for 50,000 or 60,000km on one vehicle, while on another vehicle it may only be used for 25,000km and must be replaced.
The frequency of vehicles stopping and running on the road is an important factor. Generally speaking, the replacement cycle of the brake pads of motorcycles that drive on urban roads for a long time is significantly longer than that of vehicles that drive on highways for a long time. Short, driving on mountain roads is shorter than driving on flat roads, and the replacement cycle of trucks is shorter than that of light vehicles. Therefore, no “authority” can actually say how long the brake pads will last, only one thing is certain: always check the wear of the brake pads.
When to replace the brake pads
Usually, the brake pads must be replaced in the following situations:
1. When When the thickness of the brake pad is less than the minimum maintenance standard allowed by the vehicle manufacturer;
2. When the wear indicator on the brake pad touches the brake disc;
3. The brake pad is oiled or grease pollution;
4. When the brake pads are abnormally worn or tapered.
