Hi all,
thanks for checking out this video on how I installed some genuine Kawasaki front brake pads onto my 2018 Kawasaki Z1000SX.
The weather was beautiful this Easter weekend, but I cannot ride as I tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday evening :( gutted doesn't come close to describing it… I was really looking forward to a full weekend of riding and a few hundred miles for sure! I'm happy in a way though as this meant I could potter round and sort a few of those ever present "smaller jobs" that never seem to get done, this is one of them… to be honest though - I was so tired afterwards... damn this cover crap really sucks :(
I'm hoping for much love and support from you al out there :) Hope you are all safe and well...
My bike has covered about 11,500 miles so I've done well to get this much life from my front pads, the last service suggested they were wearing low so I got a set of genuine Kawasaki pads from P&H Motorcycles in Crawley and fitted them.
keep in mind, I'm no expert, this video is meant as a record of what I did, if you have any concerns or doubts about the process, get your local bike shop to install them for you as you can't gamble with safety!
Be good, stay safe, ride safe...
see you on the road soon.

Great video, Just a suggestion, based on years of rebuilding brakes:- You dont need copper ease on the back of the pads, that is why they have anti-squeal shims fitted onto them. There is a real chance that the copper ease, that is in a grease base, will melt and trickle down the pad fowling the friction faces. Use copper ease only on the pins, the pin threads, the calliper bolt and a tiny amount on the hollow locating dowels that the calliper mounts upon. If torqued up correctly they will NEVER come undone, until you want them to, at which point they won't shear because you have done the right way. Cheers

Excellent. Will have to do this at some stage as my Z1000sx has just hit 4000 miles.

Excellent video, thank you! How did you “break in” your new front brake pads? Any specific procedure required?

moderate use for 100 miles - except in an emergency then use them as required....but best follow manufacturers guidance. some have different bedding in procedures.

Hola muy buenas, me podrías decir cuales son los pares de apriete de los tornillos de freno delantero, el que sujeta la pinza y el que sujeta las pastillas, y el tornillo trasero que sujeta la pinza y el tornillo que sujeta las pastillas. Saludos y gracias ✌️

Hello, in the video you tighten the screws with a torque wrench, the tightening torques are 30Nm and 15Nm? Taking advantage of the message, the hand protectors where I bought them could you indicate a link. Thank you, regards.

Hello, very good, could you tell me what are the tightening torques for the front brake screws, those that hold the caliper and those that hold the pads, and the rear screw that holds the caliper and the screw that holds the pads. Greetings and thanks ✌️

I don't understand English very well and the video doesn't have subtitles, hence my question regarding the tightening torques. I'm sorry to have bothered you, greetings ✌️
