Video Transcript

On behalf of Expert Village. My name is Seth Williams. I work for dean case service and I am hear to tell you about simple street bike brake repair and inspection. Alright now we are gonna need to gain access to the reservoir see we can bleed our system. Make sure are brakes work on this particular motorcycle you can see hear the key lock it also does the passenger seat which gains us access to the driver seat which were gonna need to take off to gain access to our reservoir. Two bolts or screws will hold this seat on. Once those are out you can go ahead and take that seat off that will give you access to your blots. You need to take apart to get your side of the cal off it will be a screw in hear and a screw in hear and a screw down hear. Once those removed just slide the whole system right out of our way. There access to our reservoir right hear. The Phillips head is the usual for these sometimes you might encounter and 8 millimeter bolt. For the most part there are Phillip head screws now be careful in this part to the step. Because you will need to make sure no foreign objects are in this brake what so ever. Do a visual inspect of your seal gasket. Also inspect the bottom of your reservoir for any foreign objects, rips tears or holes in this or dry rotting cracking make sure your cap works and make sure your screws aren't stripping. Once thats done as you can see we had no fluid left in hear because we drained the whole system. So the first thing that we will do is fill it up. We are gonna hook up our new mastic litter, bleed the brake system to make sure everything works correctly.
