Ok, bought a replacement brembo pad kit for my 09 Road Glide and was going to install. But I noticed that the kit came with some type of sticker that is suppose to go on the back of the pad and some type of grease that you are suppose to spread on the pads or something like that. I have a service manual and the fix my hog dvd and nothing in either mentions either the sticker thing or the grease thing? So, can't I just install the pads like normal or are these two items required?
 
You've got a newer brake kit that HD has put out to cut down on the back breaks squealing. You're going to want to use the grease. The sticker is just a template for where the grease goes on the pad. You'll take the sticker off. A larger diameter pin also comes with the kit.
 
The "sticker" is a template that you temporarily place on the pads to cover the areas that do not get greased. The grease grease should be applied in the cutout are of the template (a thin layer will do).

The goal is to only apply grease where the piston comes into contact with the pad.
