If you look on James sherlock's web site, the brembo ones are the original ones apparently. Part No 811335 i think

I really don't want to start a new thread for a simple question so if you don't mind....

I'm going to be changing the Rear Brake Pads on my 2016 R1200GS... is there anything particular to watch out for?

I know it s a straight forward job as I've done it on a few other bikes just wondering if there's anything "weird and wonderful" on the GS to ruin my day?

Nothing really , just make sure the pistons are clean before you push them back into the caliper .Use the old pads to push the pistons back in , clean everything and for some maybe a smear of copper grease on the pin.
Hope this helps.

Forgot to mention ....... make sure its Hilltopped , the wrong panniers fitted and the paint peels , incorrect oil , bigger / smaller screen and above all at least its not a KTM .........shit must remember not to go to the pub too early.

Enjoy your bike
