Brake pad shims
My rear brake pads arrived this morning and I had a read of the workshop manual before going to the garage and looked at the diagram of all the parts.
When I took the old brake pads out there were no shims behind the pads like in the workshop manual diagram. Parts 12 & 13 caliper shims.
So either there were none fitted from new or someone had changed the pads previously and not refitted the shims. Unlikely as it had done just over 5000 miles.
If you have changed your rear brake pads on your XT600 I would be interested to hear if they had shims.
