  • He knows what he's talking about. Any tips on changing some pads on a 1995 cbr600f?

  • @Trotters222 Make sure you clean the pistons very good before you push them back. I would also strongly suggest replacing the fluid.

  • Hello, Im about to change my brakes but was wondering... should I lube the brake pin? or is that not needed

  • @deerman1212 You can if you want to, it is not a big deal as it won't be there long at all. The main thing would be to check the pin for wear and replace them if a groove has worn in them. A little lube where they pass through the caliper won't hurt and might make future service easier.

  • Hi, Can you change pads without removing the caliper body? i.e. keeping caliper on wheel just remove the pad pin and spring, hit it with brake cleaner, jamp your thumb in and push back the pistons and insert new pads??

    Also - does your online website ship internationally? i can't find brake bleeder bags for sale or import into australia at all!!!

  • @Zed100000 Take the time and do it the proper way. Some bikes will allow you to change the pads without removing the calipers. When you do it that way you are not able to clean the pistons on the calipers. We do ship internationally every day.

  • nice

  • how do you install the bleeders? does fluid come out when you put them in or do they just attach to the end of the bleed screw? also is that bleed bag just a bag or does it have a one way valve in it or something? would a bottle with a hose work the same way? i only ask as im on the other side of the world so the shipping cost probably wouldnt make it a viable option to buy if theres other options.

  • @cockamamey The Vesrah RJL has a bit more initial bite. We have tons of riders who use the RJL for bikes that are used the same way you use yours.
