The front brake pads of the KTM 1290 Super Adventure R can be replaced by loosening the screws that fix the caliper to the corresponding disc: once the caliper is removed from the disc, it will be possible to remove the pins that hold the pads in place in order to extract them from their housing. Once the new replacement pads have been inserted into their seat, they can be secured with the pin; then the caliper must be reattached to the disc to ensure that everything is functioning correctly.
