@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.
