Suzuki Kingquad - front brake service
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
- The next task in servicing this 2019 Suzuki KingQuad is to take a look at the front brakes, given them a service & check the condition of the brake pads...
A relatively easy task but one that is often overlooked or not included in what some bike shops call a 'Service'!
Included in the video are the relevant torque settings, proceedure & a few helpful hints & tips along the way.
Watch out for other videos in this Series covering all the main aspects of completing a Major Service on this model of ATV.
Enjoy
Andy

Very intricate caliper work almost like Brain Surgery. Thank You Andy
And yet another GREAT video, Andy.
Thanks Jon :-)
I like the hacksaw on pad. Great tip.
Great video Andy! Thank you for all the videos 😊
I'm a huge anti seize fan but never use it in the ATV. Thought it would attract dirt so never bothered.
Is a brake job on a king quad similar to doing brakes on a suzuki 500 quadmaster?...so hard to find any quadmaster videos, thanx.
Can you give me any advice on where I can get the mounting bolts for the brake calipers
You could order genuine ones on line, there will be plenty of Suzuki dealers that will ship the parts to you, though I guess thus depends where in the World you are?
Cheers
Andy
Good 👍 job
I order front pads for 2020 kq500 got some for 2013-14 or so Are they the same Probably are
Hi Andy! Can you use copper paste for lubricating brake pads and slide pins?
Yes for the pads but you'd be better using a heat resistant grease for the sliders - make sure it's okay to be used with rubber.
I used to use copper paste on the sliders but it can dry over time & gum them up causing resistance
Hope this is of help
Cheers Andy
😂 I can’t get the two pins loose they’re seized in
Seems like the 5 mm Allen key is too small it just strips them. Any advice on how to get it out I have tried heat
Hey Andy just did new front pads on 2020 kingquad only one caliper is grabbing and won't build pressure at the lever. Bled brakes still no pressure any guesses
Too much piston retraction, did you rebuild the calipers or just push the pistons back in to fit the new pads?
@@AndyMechanic yes
@@AndyMechanic but I can see one side squeeze and grab the rotor not getting anything from the other side
@@AndyMechanic pushed them back in it's a newer quad with low miles
Piston to seal interface likely dry. Pop pistons out, clean, refit & bleed up
andy i will send you a little home made tool take the ad pins and lets you put them in a drill to clean them
That would be super useful, yes please Simon, I have a lot of these to clean up on the RoVs I service. Thank You. Andy
Thank u sir 👍
No need to put lock tite on them just never seize just snug them they don’t gotta be tight
