Rear Brake Pad Inspection and Replacement
The SG250 uses a mechanically-actuated drum brake in the rear. It is mechanically linked to the rear brake
pedal with a steel rod. The amount of free play in the rear brake pedal before the rear brake starts to
engage is adjusted via a threaded nut on the rear of the steel rod.
The rear brake caliper wear indicator is located on drum
(indicated by the upper arrow). As the rear brake wears,
free play is adjusted by turning the nut indicated by the
lower arrow. When the rear brake has reached the end of its
adjustment range, the brake shoes should be replaced. The
rear wheel must be removed to do this.
Place the motorcycle on the centerstand.
Remove the rear brake torque rod cotter pin and nut, and
disconnect the rear brake torque rod from the rear brake.
Remove the rear brake actuation rod nut and rotate the brake
actuator to disconnect the actuation rod from the rear brake.
