hey guys, any tips and hints for front brake pad replacement? I have a FZ8 Fazer ABS
I've tried undoing the two man bolts and sliding the calliper oof the disc but it hits the wheel!
Am i right in assuming, two cilps on the retaining pin come off first, slide the pin out and at the same time then the flexy backplate comes off?
Tyring to find any decent videos on the web is proving impossible.
Is it possible to replace the pads without removeing the calliper?
Any pointer greatly appreciated
A :-)

i got my calipers off like that.. was tight with the wheel but they did come off..
and because of that I can't remember if you can get the pads out the top of the caliper.
if you pull the 'R' pins out and knock the pins through you'll soon find out...
BTW the main caliper bolts torque back up to 40nm
