Glad I decided to change brake fluid

Post by toy752 » Thu May 15, 2014 1:15 pm

Well today Shaun and I changed the fluid on my brakes. The front wasn't that bad but the rear had lots of color and several bubbles in it.

Thanks for the help Shaun.

And while I was in the mood I bled the brakes on the Ninja 500 I bought yesterday... the fluid looked like tar!
