New 2013 super tenere owner. Heard a grinding sound while spinning rear wheel. Checked brakes and found the inner pad was put on backwards. It was grinding on the rotor. The pad itself is almost new. The rotor has a slight indentation from the metal grinding on it. The shim caliper is missing on that same inner pad. I put on the pad correctly and and was wondering if the caliper is an essential part of the system. Also wondering if it is safe to drive until I replace the rotor and get the new shim caliper which I just ordered from partzilla. Thanks in advance for any insight!
