@jonne123 The best advice for you is to buy a Haynes manual from ebay for the DTR, which will give you a comprehensive guide on how to perform many simple maintenance jobs to a full engine rebuild. Alternatively you can download the Yamaha owners manual for free from here;

Should be the same as any other vehicle.
- Remove the bolts securing the caliper to the forks.
- Remove the old pads.
- Loosen the bleed nipple, use a silicon hose to capture the brake fluid.
- Push the piston back into the caliper (G-Clamps help)
- Ensure there is no corrosion on the piston as this can damage the seal.
- Refit the new pads
- Put caliper back on the forks
- Rebleed the brake system to compensate for lost fluid.
- Bed the pads in as per guidance.
