Motorcycle Repair: BRAKE PAD REPLACEMENT, rear brake caliper, torque wrench


Question
Chris,

How do I go about getting the rear brake caliper off to replace the pads? Do I need special tools?
I have a '01 Fatboy with 4500 miles on it.

Answer
Hi Randy.
 You should not need any special tools to remove the caliper.  Just the usual tools; screwdriver, pliers, and wrenches.  The only additional tool you may possibly need would be a torque wrench to tighten the mounting bolts correctly.

Good luck.
