Re: Smart turn system
I don't use the flashing brake option..I use the rear running light/turn signal option, which is decided by the one wire from the sm-5 either to the tail light wire side or stop light wire side on the tail light socket.. That's my set up anyway. I've got an aftermarket license frame with dual row(to...

Front Rim "Spin Art" ?
I've got what looks like the old spin art paint for kids on my front rim. I made sure the recent bleeder's installed were snugged, lines seem to be OK. It's not bad, but it's not right either. Do ya think I have damaged a seal/o-ring on the caliper? when doing the iABS bleed,removing pads & inst...

I agree with peels.. Jump on it ." Buy It" Just take it slow, the learning I mean. If your taller than,say 5'8" you've an advantage in being able to touch your foot to the ground when stopping & or holding the bike up.. And yes. as stated above, change all the fluids. You can lear...

Re: Front Brake Pad Replacement Question.
OK thanks for the replies. It's all good.. My 11 mile ride in this am & rotors were cool to the touch, & back home too. Guess I'm over worrying it. I did clean one side of caliper, other side yet to do. Drew off fluid from reservoir before pushing back pistons. I've a renewed interest with t...

Front Brake Pad Replacement Question.
I put new pads on the front of the R. Wheel has a slight drag when on the center stand.. Took it down the street & all is good, although rotors are just a bit warm.. Will this drag go away when the pads are bedded in?

Brake Pad Replacement Question
When replacing brake pads, I only need to draw off fluid from reservoir when pushing pistons back?, because when I flush & bled the iABS, & had to remove calipers, it required the funnel to be on the ABS module & fluid went up into funnel. So with the cap on the module the fluid will be ...

Hey AZBMWRIDER. Do you have a source or part number for the stainless lines?

I just did the iABS, front & rear caliper...
Thanks..
