Refer to “Front Brake Caliper Removal and Installation
(Page 4B-3)”.
NOTE
The right and left calipers are installed
symmetrically and therefore the disassembly
procedure for one side is the same as that for
the other side.
Disassembly
1) Remove the brake pads. Refer to “Front Brake Pad
Replacement (Page 4B-2)”.
2) Separate the caliper halves by removing the caliper
housing bolts with special tools.
Special tool

(B): 09930–11940 (Bit holder)
3) Remove the O-ring.
4) Place a rag over the pistons to prevent it from
popping out and then force out the pistons using
compressed air.
CAUTION
!
Do not use high pressure air to prevent
piston damage.
