Keeping a regular check on your brake pads’ wear is crucial. Neglecting this could lead to the unpleasant experience of pads welding to the brake disc. The simplest and most reliable method to check their wear is through visual inspection.

Using a flashlight, approach the pads and examine the remaining lining. The pad consists of two parts: the metal backing and the lining. The lining typically has a notch in the center or on the side, signaling the maximum wear limit, usually around 1 or 2 mm.

Here’s a simple and easy-to-follow guide for changing the brake pads on your Sur Ron Ultra Bee:

Open the master cylinder cap and use a syringe to remove a bit of brake fluid, then retract the pistons. This step is optional; usually, after repeated use of the braking system, the fluid level decreases, and this manipulation is no longer necessary.

Unscrew the bolts holding the caliper in place, then gently slide it off the disc.

The pads slide on an axis through the caliper. Remove the axis by taking out the pin or unscrewing it, then take out the pads.

Clean the pistons. Spray brake cleaner into the caliper and scrub away any gunk with a brush or cloth.

Replace the old pads between the pistons and firmly push the pistons back with a large screwdriver or a specialized tool.

Hold the new pads in place while you install the axis.

Clean the caliper, pads, and disc with brake cleaner. Apply Loctite to the caliper mounting bolts, then tighten them firmly.

Top off the brake fluid and seal up the master cylinder cap. Give the brake lever a few squeezes to settle the pads, and you’re ready to go!

To gauge the health of your brake discs, start by pinching the disc between your fingers. If the disc is grooved or shows irregularities, that’s a red flag.

Check out the disc itself for a minimum thickness marking. Use a caliper to measure if your disc is still above this value.

In addition to thickness, it’s the overall wear and tear of the brake discs that you need to observe. Are they warped? Blazing blue from overheating? If so, replace them immediately. Last thing you need is your brakes bailing on you mid-ride.

If you just want to make sure there’s enough brake fluid in your Ultra Bee’s braking system, a nifty little window lets you visually check the level.

The fluid should be above the low level mark. Make sure your bike’s perfectly level; checking on a steep incline during one of your rides won’t give you accurate results.

To really get a handle on the fluid’s condition, it’s best to unscrew the master cylinder cap. Take a peek inside to see the color and spot any impurities lurking in your fluid.

Open the master cylinder cap. Once it’s open, drain it. Use a syringe or paper to absorb the liquid.

Refill the master cylinder with new fluid. Skipping this step could cause air bubbles to form, which is definitely not what you want.

Let’s move on to the brake calipers. Remove the rubber cap that protects the bleed screw. Attach the end of the hose to the bleed screw and keep the wrench handy to tighten it easily when needed. Also, remember to position the other end of the hose into a container, unless you’re aiming for an impromptu oil slick on your floor.

Next, press the brake lever several times to build pressure. Hold it, and loosen the bleed screw with the wrench. You’ll feel the pressure on the lever decrease. The fluid will flow into the container and will be replaced by the new fluid you put in the master cylinder. Tighten the bleed screw before releasing the lever.

Repeat the process until the fluid in the hose is clear and without bubbles, and you feel pressure again in the brake lever. Ideally, you want that lever feeling firm, not reaching the end, or only with difficulty. Regularly check the level of new fluid in the master cylinder.

Once bleeding is done, check the fluid level one last time. Fill the master cylinder to the maximum for new pads, or adjust it for worn ones. Check the firmness of the lever.

Remove the hose and replace the rubber cap on the bleed screw. Be careful of brake fluid splashes, as they are corrosive. Clean the caliper with a cloth and brake cleaner.
