front brakes rebuilding |

I like to share my experience in removing and rebuilding the two front brakes. My front brakes were stuck and I took the left side brake out of the wheel and I could hardly roll the motorcycle so I removed the right side. It was stuck pretty good and after removing it from the wheel I started to diassemble the left caliper and it was very dificult but the piston came out and it had corrosion and the seals were dry. I began to remove the right side and I could not remove the piston at all, I took it to a family mechanic shop and had it removed, the corrosion was bad and the seals had all dry it up and were wedged around the piston. Today I just received the new pistons and seals and I hope that tomorrow I will be able to assemble it without much trouble. I purchased the new parts from Xtreme Powersports website and the pistons came as a kit with the seals. I had ordered two seal sets not knowing that the piston order came with seals included. Aparently the order information on the website was not clear in what is included. I would go to other websites for purchasing these parts if I had known. I hope this will help someone with their front brakes. |
