You shouldn't have to use that much fluid to bleed the brakes. You guys are probably doing it wrong, letting air go back into the lines (meaning you have to keep doing it).

Don't open the valve too wide, and don't let it stay open too long, and don't let the resevoir go dry.

 

to remove the wheel...just loosen the two pinch bolts on either fork...unscrew the axle nut...slide out the axle and the wheel will drop down...only thing you have to worry about is that there are spacers on either side...having different widths...i believe the wider one goes on the right (i am thinking from memory here)....

there's a nice tutorial here... How to remove/install front wheel!

 

Also, my Clymers manual says to make the tube you use loop above the valve to make sure no air gets back into the caliper.

 

Well well well, I took it into the dealer, cause I don't like messing around with the brakes with limited knowledge, and both my disks are bent, I have leaking forks, and I need a new horn !!?%&!~

Do any of you knowledgable people out there know if there is an inexpensive way around buying 2 new rotors? I am looking to find used ones, but they seem to be hard to come by. Do rotors from any other honda products fit? F4i? can they be remachined? corrected?

2nd and 3rd, how much does it cost you guys to have your fork seals changed? they are charging me like 200$ and I need a horn! anybody got one? (200 CBR 929RR)?

thanks in advance for the help

 

wow...today might be your lucky day....i MIGHT be...(like 90% sure) be buying a set of galfer wave rotors for my bike and will be getting rid of my OEM ones...i was going to throw them up on ebay but if you want them, we can work something out (don't worry i am not going to screw you...lol)....they have about 6k on them MAYBE....they are in great condition, i just wanted an upgrade....

huh...i was right...whadda ya know...coolio!! sorry it meant bent rotors...

PM me about the rotors...

 

i got the stock horn from my 95 CBR, probably the same. I'll take a look later and see how different they are. If it will work, I'll send it to you for the cost of shipping, rounded up to the nearest dollar. I'm out of town till probably this weekend, so it would be a short wait.

 

Thats funny I just got a 2002 F4I last weekend and it has the same exact problem. Tried bleeding quite a bit, but rotors are insanely warped from a crash. Now I am considering what rotors to get. Does anyone have experience with these Chinese ones: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Front...QQcmdZViewItem ?
