Wheezle Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Order the kit and do it. Its not that hard, a few bolts and o-rings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 yeah +1 for doing it yourself. take the pistons out. clean everythign up real nice with brake fluid, re-assemble. replace o rings or dust boots as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheezle Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Brake kleen is your best friend for cleaning your caliper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVTPilot Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 :plus1:for DIY. I am a huge DIY advocate, as I believe in building a relationship between man and machine. Calipers are a good starting point, as they are pretty easy. (Though I am a former hydraulic mech, and used to them.) So long as you don't have any significant corrosion in the cylinder wall that would require honing, you can just scrub them up with some brake kleen and get a repack kit from your dealer or online. Be one with the bike and brakes, my friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
