Renewing brake hydraulic oil

<< < (5/5)

Bradders:
Thanks all for your advice. Sounds to me I might leave it another couple of years yet. The oil in the reservoir is quite a clear colour and it seems that maybe it doesn’t need doing just yet.

Good. If the brakes are working well and stopping the bike in time ( As well as 400/4 brakes have ever worked that is 😊😊😊) leave it for now and do it when you change the pads next.

Bradders:
Great advice Julie thanks. My pads have always looked Like there’s less thickness on the inside pad than the outside one. Is that normal?

Bryanj:
Yes, original pads had a line/groove around them painted red and were ok till the line was worn into. Outer pad wears morn as it touches disc first before pulling caliper over for inner pad to touch, at least that is what i was i was told years ago

Bradders:
Thanks Bryanj.  That makes sense.
