To replace the brake pads on the Suzuki V-Strom 1050, the same procedure must be carried out for both the front and rear wheels: you will need to loosen the screws that secure the brake caliper to its housing. By doing this, it will be possible to detach the caliper and remove the pin that holds the pads inside their slot: this way, they can be completely removed and replaced with new ones. The new pads can now be secured by screwing the caliper with the appropriate screws, then checking that everything is functioning correctly.
