I AM NOT A MECHANIC, THIS VIDEO ABOUT BRAKES IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY !
SEEK ADVIE FROM A QUALIFIED VEHICLE TECHNICIAN

UPDATE JANUARY 2023: TO AVOID CONFUSION PLEASE DO NOT USE ANTI SIEZE GREASE ON YOUR CALIPER BOLTS A VIEWER POINTED THIS OUT, YEARS OF BEING MISINFORMED ON MY PART. VIDEO WILL BE EDITED TO REMOVE THAT REFERENCE.

My new 2022 BMW R1250GS has covered 2900 miles in 7 months
I have the HAYES callipers at the front and a Brembo to the rear.
2 weeks ago the front brakes started to screech when I came to a stop.
Very annoying.
Took me 40 minutes to dismantle , clean and reinstall the front brake callipers .
The only grease etc I used was Copper Grease on the calliper bolts.Advice from my local dealer.
There was no need to sand the discs/pads.
JUST A GOOD OLD CLEAN.
Brakes are now screech free.


00:00-01:54 Introduction
01:54-02:45 Tools needed
02:45-07:32 Removing the front caliper's
07:32-13:28 Let the cleaning commence
13:28-19:53 Putting it all back
19:53-21:37 That's a wrap then .

I didn’t need a front paddock stand, it just helped to spin the front wheel for cleaning the disc .

I used Muc off brake cleaner:
