    Great video. A warning for anyone with very tight reservoir cover screws - don't use a Phillip ("regular"/cross) screwdriver! Use a "JIS" screwdriver - Japanese Industrial Standard. The JIS looks like Phillips, but JIS is designed for high torque and will not "pop out" or chew up your screws. If you try to use a "regular" Phillips (cross/plus shape), the screws can be chewed up and you end up with a stuck screw. Ask me how I know. A JIS screwdriver is $10-$15 and well worth it.

    I forgot to say that I did this job just 2 weeks ago . I wish I knew about the bleeding procedure. But now I will do it for sure because iyou make it look super easy . And I dont need to go through all the steps again . Its just an ending step .
    I dont know how to attach photos ...my brake fluid was very dirty.
    It is very important maintenance step that should be done every second year if you ride mostly on road and annualy if you go offroad .

      Thanks for the info. Yeah, the bleeding should be easy. Just make sure you add more fluid if you end up having to bleed a lot of brake fluid out.

    Hi man, very nice video and structure, good sense of humor too! Any tips on how to also tackle the fluid in the ABS pump? Thanks!

      Hey thanks for the feedback! I’ve heard on the forums people actuating the ABS under hard braking to move the fluid around and then re-drain it. I honestly did not have the opportunity to try yet. Especially on the front brakes.

    Very nice and indepth video about it . I realy enjoy it
    Though I sugest you should do something with the sound and mic.
    Its not awfull but it could be better

    • @1LiterADV

      Thanks for the tip. Did you think the mic sound was too noisy?

    • @adrianciobanu5167

      @@1LiterADV I think it sound with too much surround echo . If you know what I mean

    • @1LiterADV
      @1LiterADV  Рік тому

      Yes, that really helps. We actually used a camera external shotgun mic, instead of the lav mic due to the complexity of the job. So your feedback is 100% correct.

    If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to leave them here.
    Brake Fluid is linked in the description. FYI - You won't need the entire 12oz bottle. amzn.to/3CZ4twc
    Brake pads are sold by many different brands. I suggest starting with your local Suzuki dealership, and going from there.

    Great video! Great production value and very easy to follow. Quick Q, what torque wrench are you using? I like the indicator lights.

    • @1LiterADV
      @1LiterADV  Рік тому +1

      Thank you! That was a Snap On torque wrench I borrowed from a friend.

      My guess is that the pads were not moving together equally, so one was rubbing much than the other. You can use graphite lube or something like that on the parts that allow the pad to slide in-out. Be careful not to get any lubricant on the pad itself.
