brake

Having asked al lot of questions during the last month about the conversion of FE550S 2004 into supermoto, i finally succeded my target. the only thing that i didn't calculate right from the begining, was that i had to change also the brake pump. the caliber remained the same (brembo), i put...

The owners manual says use Dot 5.1 (not 5) but the brake reservoir says Dot 4. Any one have any thoughts on this?

I accidentally melted my break like this weekend. ;( somehow it decided to ride against my exhaust. Any one out there have a spare that would fit my 95 600FE? I have been looking around and called a few places, but it sounds like it will not be easy to find one.

I have an 05 FE450e with about 30 hours on it. When I first got her I noticed the brake lever felt a bit spongier than the jap bike I was used to,.. but overlooked it because i was so in love with everything else about the bike. A couple of rides ago, the lever was pulling right into the...

i have never been impressed with the feel from the front brake, it comes in half way before the bike pulls up. i have just changed the fluid and it come up a bit but i still wasnt happy. i then removed the lever inspected the rod that contacts the master cylinder , i then extended the rod by...

Anyone got recommendations for replacement pads for the radial caliper? I ran this weekend on the EBC pads and did not find them to my liking they have too much initial bite, and no progression or "feel". On the 6 pot non-radial caliper I was extremely happy with the R2 pads (thanks for...

Hi all. I've been trying to find brake pads with more bite and/or durability for the radial mounted calipers on the -05 models but no luck so far. Does anyone here at UHE have the answer to where I can find any :!: The calipers are made by "FTE - design by beringer" but I cant find any...

Dale and Taffy, A short time ago both of you had indicated that you had used the stock Magura mineral oil clutch master cylinder to activate the rear brake using regular glycol based brake fluid. How are these supposedly non compatible to brake fluid units holding up to the caustic effects of...

What is the best way to change the fluid ?.More than one way to skin a cat so wandering what you do and what you use.

The metal sheath on my brake line that runs into my back brake under the bleeder nipple came loose today (I think it happened after a large stick hit it). I heard a large crack and thought ohh stick no worries. So I was coming up to a log to log jump it and wanted to wash off a bit of speed...
