This is the biggest project I have taken on, The bike will be completely stripped down to the frame, the engine will be removed for new piston rings to be installed, the wiring harness is going to be rewired and the entire bike overhauled, ready for spring 2020....I hope.

Hallo ich hätte gerne gesehen wie du die vordere Hohlschrauben( beim Motor ) der Bremsleitung gelöst hast. Ich möchte die Bremsleitung für die Hinterradbremse wechseln ,gibt es eine Möglichkeit die Hohlschraube vorne zu lösen ohne Auspuffanlage und Fussrastenanlage zu demontieren?? Schöne Grüße aus Österreich.

Hey bro what can I do for my front brakes Squeaking ... ???

Squeaking brakes can be caused by a couple of things. First try cleaning the disk with brake and clutch aerosol. If no change, I would recommend new pads along with a full caliper rebuild. Your pad might be touch the disk ever so slightly at the wrong angle causing the squeak.

Hagar Moto - Intruder Viking ok.. I mean only when Sometimes when I brake happen

[@fredflintstone3956]

I'm curious why you bothered cleaning the brake rotors? Aren't you going to have them machined to true them up and get rid of the grooves?

Most likely i will, but felt like not everyone even knows thats an option and the safest approach is to clean them straight away to illustrate the importance of removing brake fluid from the calipers
