    How To Change The Rear Brake Pads On A Harley Without ABS (2012 Harley Davidson Street Glide)

    November 9, 2014 by Ride It Wrench It Leave a Comment

    As stated in the title, this post is about another maintenance necessity. Last weekend, we were working in the garage cleaning out stuff we had stored for years and never used. I had to move my bike out of the way, and instead of starting it, I just put it in neutral and rolled it around. That's when I noticed a soft grinding sound coming from the brake area at the rear tire. I would never have heard it if I had started the bike over the sound of the exhaust. Oh my! It was kind of embarrassing because of all the maintenance videos and posts I have done. But truth be told, I simply didn't pay attention to the rear brakes lately.
     

    Sunday morning, we headed to Harley and bought new pads. I figured this would be a good time to make a video that might help someone as well. Even though I have a video of doing the front brakes and bleeding the brake lines, performing the pad change on the rear is a slightly different process.
