Taking off rear brake pads

[yamaha1470]

My pads are grinding and running water through them only helped so much so i wanna take the pads off to clean them. How do i do this? Will i have to rebleed the brakes? Thanks

that hold the break on and then take out the other two bolts that go trough the break pads and the pads will fall out.

Redrider is correct on removing the pads. And no you won't have to bleed the breaks as long as you don't accidently mash the break pedal as the caliper is off the disk. If you have trouble pushing the piston back in order to make both of the new pads fit around the disk I recommend using a smal c-clamp to hold the piston all the way back - it works like a champ.

c clamps fix anything
