i want to upgrade my brakes from the stock factory 954rr to a brembo (Gold Series Sport) i know how do almost everything but only thing, i am i bit worrid is to bleed the brakes....since i want to use my Galfer brake lines... and i want to do it alone.....any sugestions how to do it the right way????

 

Your replacing the brake claps or the line? or both?

 

I googled this (bunch of aggravating pop ups)for you http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/maintenance/brakes.htm

I did not read it, but a quick scan looks okay.

This really isnt a difficult task.

An unorthodox shortcut that many will scoff at is to wrap a rag (absorb fluid bleed) around the master banjo and crack it while squeezing front brake lever. I only use this when encountering a really persistant bubble.

Good luck.

 

If you get a brake bleeder and tubing, life is a little easier but keep the rags handy. The brake bleederis a one way valve in that when squeeze thebrake lever, the fluid comes out and direct towardsa bucket with tubing... when you release the brake lever there isn't any backflow. Just keep on pumping until all the fluid is out. When you refill, put the new brake fluid into the resevior and pump away but fill the resevior with fluid before it is completely empty as to prevent air in the tubes. Once your done you tighten up the bleeder, which replaces the brake valve. It's really nothing to worry about.

 

ok thanks guys... i really appreciate ur help....this should really help me out a lot!!! ill i got to get nowis that brake bleeder( the vacuum pump) and ill be good...
