First, remove the front wheel and turn the steering to gain easy access to the work area. Put on a good pair of gloves and remove the two pins holding the brake caliper using a 13mm spanner.

Then, disconnect the brake warning cable, which is attached to the outer pad, and remove the caliper. Next, you need to retract the piston that presses on the pads to allow for the insertion of the new pads.

Finally, insert the new pads and reassemble everything, remembering to reconnect the brake warning cable. You can also take this opportunity to bleed the brake fluid from the line by opening the appropriate valve to ensure no air bubbles remain.
