a siezed brake dumped me onto the street doing 35mph. this video is the best explained so far on what i gotta do. thx mr. nut.
Dude this just happened to me as well! I have a 94 xv750. Locoed up on me hardddd
Same thing happened to me, I used all my strength to not flip over the handle bars. I succeeded, But strained my back pretty bad.
It pays to compress the piston back , with something 'Other' than the pad . Ply-wood works well . The pad-material can fracture when localised-pressure is placed in/on one point of the material , leading to the pad disintegrating under braking . While not common, it does happen . 67yrs, 51 bikes . Dave NZ
I agree with that.
51 bikes, almost a full deck!! Impressive
Very well shot video, camera angles, lighting, dialogue and editing. Well done. Thanks!!
Great video. Well demonstrated, as well as easy to follow. Thanks for taking the time for showing your patience, and techniques!
Very informative great job I have the same problem and now know how to fix it, Thanks.
Just unstuck my front brakes on my 83 nighthawk 660 with your assistance. Thank you for making this useful and helpful content. I subscribed.
Glad it helped
Excellent video : a very good make-over.
The return hole was a good observation,
and flushing through 3 times was very thorough.
Thanks sir, I had same problem with my kawasaki gpz 900r. You saved my day. Fixed and done 🙂👍.
Thanks so much for a very detail explanation of how it all works!!
Many thanks for this tutorial. It was given in words of one syllable and really easy to understand. No special tools needed and I'm really looking forward to trying it this weekend.
Very, very good I don't need to see anything else thanks a lot for such a useful video
My old ktm kept locking up out in the bush and I would just open the bleeder on the caliper. Had to do it a couple of times in an hour.
I checked out this video as I had just overhauled the caliper and cleaned the reservoir but I didn't stick a bit of wire down the return hole.
Thanks a whole lot- I was going crazy.
A master class in servicing!
Thanks for taking the time to post such a helpful video, I like your simplified techniques to solve the problem.
You're welcome!
I've done a few break jobs before but I learned a few new tricks from this video. Thanks!
Glad to help!
Good stuff. Glad this came up in my search. This is my project for the weekend. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Have fun!
@@Amotorcyclenut - Got it done! Thanks again. Wouldn’t have known where to start if not for this clip!
Top tips right there on simple maintenance
Thank you I have a 2001 Triumph Trophy 900 and this worked to unstick my brakes
Excellent help with a problem I am experiencing. Honda from 85. Everything is cherry except for the clingy brakes. Gonna use your advice, it’ll take less than an hour, and then she’ll be phenomenal.
Thanks man!
Great to hear!
Thank you for making this video. It's a great help!
Glad it was helpful!
Much appreciate the bit about the return hole being plugged I'm heading out to the shop to clean that little hole right now. I completely rebuilt both calipers on my 82 V45 Magna and still have the sticky brakes that won't release ...pretty sure cleaning the return will remedy that. Thanks a bunch !!
Wouldn’t you know , that little hole was plugged!! 😎All is good. Thanks again 👍
I'm gonna give that a look also. I was just about to order a new caliper and brake line. Those brakes lines are the culprit most times on my toys
jis screwdriver, new to me thank you sir!
Perfect video and instruction. So clear. Thanks bro.
Glad you liked it!
Good diy job! Thanks😎
Gonna try right now. My 2010 Honda Elite front tire locked on me. Thanks a bunch!
Thanks man hope this is my.problem on my 03 crf450r
You Great! Many thanks!
Gonna try this man, thanks!
Thank you. This video helped me today
You are so welcome!
Great video! Thank you sir!
Glad you liked it!
I really appreciate your video sir............
Very very helpfull, did the job by myself and saved me some cash$$$👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent
It was very helpful for me
Such a useful video many thanks
My pleasure
Nice period of instruction. I'm working on a ATV which has the same issue somewhat. The handle gets so tight that it doesn't release. I've not looked at the calipers yet. I had looked at the fluid and states to use DOT 3 fluid. Once the ATV cools down the bike will move. so I've not heard any scraping so far as to are the pads actually gone and the plate is becoming hot as well.
What was your outcome?
Thank you so much for the video! ❤
You are so welcome!
good job.
Thanks
greate job!!!
Nice one. Liked and subscribed 👍
Thanks for the sub!
Nice job!!
Thanks!
you the best
Awesome video. Thank you sir
My pleasure
@@Amotorcyclenut my breaks a rubbing lightly can I just clean the pistons and pins to unseaze the wheel?
Hi,
What is the brake fluid suction pump you used?
Picture, name, model?
Thanks
you get you a radiator hose and some bearing grease you might be able to get away from the misses from time to time with the way that pump sucked the fluids out of that res lol good on ya
Okay thank you :-)
Great work . Should your front wheel spin freely. Ive done top and bottom , have good preassure on break handle ,but wheels still dragging .
Cb750/4 k5 . Cheers
There is always a little bit of brake drag.
LIke it and thank you !
I'm glad you like it
Great video, the guy is an expert. I have sticky brakes on front of 1972 Honda CB450. (also 1976 CB500T) Cleaned out the piston and cylinder but still drags a little when pushing around the garage. Is that normal for a 1972 and 1976? After watching your video I looked in the handlebar reservoir and there is the little hole that I cleaned out a few years ago still very clear but now I notice a 2nd hole about 1/2" away that is plugged. Tried poking a wire thru, no go, then a paper clip, no go, so wondering if this was plugged at the factory. Don't want to force it open if supposed to be plugged.
The little hole is supposed to be open. That's what let's the fluid return to the master cylinder when you release the lever. If the master cylinder piston doesn't go back all the way you will also have the same problem. So verify that the master cylinder piston goes all the way back and the little hole is clear. then you brake will work properly.
You have to use a wire bristle from a wire brush as he shows in the clip. Hold the wire firmly in a pair of pliers with only about 3/8” sticking out past the pliers to minimize bending the wire. Twist the wire back and forth as you push to create a drilling action. The material plugging the hole can be tough to break through, be determined, you may have to cut off the bent wire several times to finally accomplish the job. When the wire bends over cut it off and start with fresh straight wire….you don’t want to break off the wire in the bleed back hole.
For most other of life’s problems explore jw.org. 😎
@@cobbleup THANKS SO MUCH to both of you
Hi can I ask you please? How many times round should the front wheel spin if working properly?
If it is working properly it should spin freely if the brake is not applied.
would the lube ..got onto pads ? or contaminate the fluid ?
In a perfect world you could use red brake grease on the caliper pistons. I think in reality it wouldn't really matter.
do i need to do that trick to both front calipers to get all the bad fluid out? or just the one? bought a bike that’s been sitting for 6 years so it’s going to be nasty.
It is wise to flush the whole system if you want it to work well. Brake fluid absorbs moisture and breaks over time. If the fluid is brown it needs to be flushed out.
Why not use your vacuum pump to pull all the fluid out from the bleeder on the caliper and then once dry, add new fluid to the reservoir and keep vacuum until the new fluid starts coming out of bleeder?
The bleeder screw on that caliper was stripped and frozen. I didn't have another caliper.
my front wheel is rubbing on the breaks its not so much a issue i cannot drive but it is costing me in fuel whats a quick option to fix this i dont want to do alot of work for a minor issue
You need to clean the pistons same way as he did
Easier to strip and rebuild surely, do it once and do it right
I bought an old 86 and ate pavement yesterday when mine locked up. I noticed my brake lever get stiff then bam. Crashed a Honda in front of a Harley guy's house. He was cool, but more in shock than I was.
I got an 86 Honda rebel 450, and after sitting the front brake sticks on. I rebuilt the front caliper, and flushed the system, and the problem still persists. If I open the bleed valve and let some out the brake works fine for a while, but after sitting it will lock up again
The little hole in the master cylinder is plugged.
Mine locked up on me because of that and caused me to flip my bike. Be careful. Rebuild it all.
@@kefkataus502 damn sounds bad
Make sure the brake line flows both ways. They break down on the inside and allow fluid to flow when braking but not return.
Same thing happening to my 99 kx250 rebuild, flushed and will start to lock up after a while, going to look at return hole in master cylinder
Little hole in master cylinder almost ended my life. Make sure you clean your system.
It will want to squirt you in the eye if your not careful. wear safety googles.
Hi, thanks for making this video, I'm trying to get the pistons to go back in with the c clamp, but they wont budge. Would you or anyone else be able to weigh in on this? thanks again
Check the return port in the master cylinder. You may have to poke it out with a fine wire to clear it out. You may have to use a magnifying glass and flashlight to find it because it is very small.
@@trainingwheels1408 You should have mentioned not to push the pistons out too far, as the rubber seals will come out!
Tom is right! Wear safety glasses when you do it because it wants to squirt you in the eyes if there is pressure in the brake line when you are trying to see the little hole and poking a wire through it. A wire from a wood handled wire brush is about the right size.
The pistons are a lost cause they need to rebuild again. Should have never let go of LiAngelo
Just poor maintenance.....can stand for 50 years and it will be fine if properly maintained...
I just took mine off I don't use front breaks
You gave up 80% of your stopping capacity. Doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
@@Amotorcyclenut I've never hit the front break
The one time I did I had front tire slide I’m good
