Right tool for the job

Post by audibob2 »

I replaced my brake fluid yesterday using the GS911 tool. Yes I can hear you..sakm

It was nice to be able to power the ABS pumps to properly flush the system, this is something I could not do on my old K100 .

The front caliper bleed nipples are screwed into threaded stubs, which in turn are threaded into the caliper body , A nice touch, as we all have

had to deal with over tightened bleed screws. the rear bleed screw was threaded into the caliper as per usual.

Do the front calipers come with the intermediate stubs from the factory, or is this after market stuff.

My vacuum bleeder, bleeding failed , so I had to pump the brake levers, nice and gently does it.

Took 30 mins tops.
