Brake Pad Replacement
I'm ordering Lyndall Z Plus pads for the Heritage. I've studied the service manual and searched this site the best I can. ( Did see caliper maintainence Glider posted. ) I've never changed brakes and would really like to know a little more before I get into this. For instance everything I can read talks about pistons but , if you've never seen one ....... Is there any site ya'll know of with a few more pictures ? No , not that kind of pictures  Thanks. Unk |

Re: Brake Pad Replacement
If you are doing work on your bike, it's recommended that you have the HD factory manual before starting anything. It will give you a pretty good idea of how to R&R brakes on the bike. Clean the pistons like you saw in that post.

Re: Brake Pad Replacement
Thanks Again , The photos were better than any I've found. Glad you are happy with your Lyndall pads Angel but you'd have to know me -- It takes me more than 45 minutes to open the package  Ride safe. Unk |

Everything I can read about Lyndall pads sugest they are easier on the rotors, wear longer , and have no dust. I'm a newbie so you should consider the source but either the large majority of forum members recommend Lyndall or there is one h*ll of a marketing conspiracy Unk |
