        @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.
