Hello everyone,

I need to replace the rear brake disc on my 1150RT.
Can anyone give me a break down (no pun intended) of the parts that I need to get from Motorworks? I'm especially after a list of the sundry items that might break/not be reusable/etc. Obviously given my location I can't just get overnight delivery, so I want to make sure that I have everything ready to go before I start.

Many thanks,
DA
 
Pads too I would say. I think conventional wisdom says to replace them too if you are putting a new disc in.
 
If you’re getting a parcel sent over, then perhaps brake hoses? I had a hose that collapsed inside & kept dragging the bike slowly, worth thinking about. Preventative maintenance are the words I’m trying to use 😁
 
I would replace the bolts that hold the disk to the hub as well.
 
I did my rear disc a while back. Pretty sure I replaced the bolts, more for appearance really, but definitely did the pads. Used the red ones from Brembo on a Brembo disc from Motorworks. Lovely soft-feeling pads, liked 'em so much I put them in the front too.
