    Front brake top hose

    Hi. Wanted to fit a new pair of handlebars on our 3 today but they were a tad longer and means that the top front brake hose isn't long enough. What's the deal with the hose join where it splits into 2? The top hose has a banjo at the top, is it a simple screw thread where it joins up on the...

    Want to Buy Chrome cover for rear brake reservoir

    I lost my chrome cover between Daytona and South Carolina. I removed it when I bleed the back brakes and noted how lousy it was built and its lack of positive attachment.

    Brake lever installation

    Howdy all, So I've just finished the rather easy job of installing nice black short levers to my bike. Then, once I'm finished and tidying up I glance at the instructions and see 'IMPORTANT', I suppose I'd better read. There's a full page of A4 dedicated to telling me I need to make sure the...

    Does the R3R 2011 have braided brake hose as standard?

    Daft maybe question. Is the R3 Roadster 2011 fitted with braided brake hoses? They certainly look like it. I'm looking to upgrade my front braking and I see Goodrich and HEL lines available, but if it is already braided I don't see the point in replacing them for others.

    Brake Caliper Pistons

    You will notice that the Rockets front Brake Calipers have two different size pistons in them. The leading (lower) piston is smaller diameter than the trailing (top) one. Why is this ?

    Brake light adjustment question.

    Good day everyone - I have an issue with the brake light not coming on when using the foot pedal. In order for the light to come on I have to push the pedal to the point it almost locks up the back wheel. When I use the hand brake the light comes on instantly as one would expect it to. I was...

    Front Brake Sound Normal?

    Now that I've had my bike for a few weeks and put a few hundred miles on it I'm starting to notice something I was oblivious to before. When I use the front brake on my '06 Rocket classic I hear a very distinct, "shushhhhhh" sound. It isn't a grinding or squealing sound but not sure it is...

    Brake bleeder recommendation

    It will be about time this summer to start thinking of flushing the brake lines on two of my bikes. My 09 Touring has only 6300 miles and has never been serviced other than oil changes; three of them and my sidecar rig with a brake on the car will be a little tricky. I have one of those...
