    Rear Brakes ... pads and disk replacement

    I always thought the flats on the pins were there to help prevent them seizing in the cast carrier & to allow for more lube to left in there?

    Rear Brakes ... pads and disk replacement

    You need to remove the stainless shims & clean all the crap off them. They just lightly clip out. There is no need to file the pads. Yes all tourers 7 & 8 have brake shoes for the handbrake.
