    First bike I've owned where you don't even have to completely remove the caliper much less the wheel to change the pads. Its as easy as pie!

    Any R6 or R1 caliper will allow you to do that too. :) Same with BMW's. Brembo design for the win!

    I'm not sure I've ever removed caliper to change pads. CBR600, GSXR750 or R6.

    On your gsxr you did and on your cbr you did.

    Well...I meant to say you would if you actually changed the pads. I mean I don't think your bikes last that long. :)

    Yeah...and you took off the caliper to check and change the pads. I was there....there were no pad left...only the metal backing.

    Yeah, but I've changed 'em w/o doing that too. One pin, pads pop out, lever pistons back into the caliper and slip new ones in.
