Hey Frank! I just bought a 2000 RSV!!! Thank you for your great videos, I am really excited to start riding in the summer and I am glad to have found videos of someone working on a bike exactly like mine.
Cheers!
Hey, Frank.
Good for you, posting this for everyone.
I have two comments: 1. I don't know why you even mention the cost of shop labour after you earlier said you're "replacing these pads, even though they're in good shape!" (wish I could afford to throw away "serviceable" parts!)
2. The most difficult part of this job just "might" be keeping careful track of what spacers and washers go WHERE in the removal and replacement of the saddle bag......and yet, you don't even mention it! THERE; I've done if for you! :-)
Safe riding, everyone!
Thank you so much Frankie
I have a Royal Star Tour Deluxe. I was worried the back brakes would be a pain because the shop always makes it sound like everything is so difficult to do (so they can charge you $90 an hour for labor). This was so easy. I could have had this done in 15 minutes if not for the fact that one of my pistons was stuck and it took me about 15 more minutes to free it up. Total time spent: 30 minutes. And with hard bags, you're saying they would have charged me 2 hours labor? It took 5 minutes to take them off. Thanks so much for the video!
Roadstar1602 glad to hear the video helped you out in changing your own back brakes and saved yourself money. Thanks for watching and subscribing to the channel..
Great video. Thank you.
Great video on rear brakes. Can't stand whistling.
Thanks great job
Good Stuff, Thanks for posting!
Thank you for watching the video.
I’m gonna do this as soon as I buy pads
Good job
Great vid thanx......
Merci!!
Can I ask, what do you use to reapply caliper bolts, do you use grease, I've had murder taking my front and rears off. Previous owner let them sit without anything I think,, and we have bad weather in UK, hence a lot of corrosion, I've rounded two bolts already.
Is this a similar process to the 08 vstar 1300 tourer?
Hey Frank! First Merry Christmas to you and yours. Had a question for you. Changed out my breaks after looking at your video. Front breaks over a month ago, no problem. Changed the rear today and ran into a little snag. While pushing one side of the Pistons in, one of the other ones popped almost out and oil spilled on the floor. Was able to get it back in easily, pushed them in and everything seemed good. However pressing the rear break to get them tight is the issue now. They won't tighten at all. I assume I may need to add more oil, but wanted to get an expert opinion on what to do next.
JP what happen when the one piston came off it let air into the system. What you need to do is bleed the back brake line it has air in it. First step is make sure you have oil in the reservoir use only " dot 4 " OIL. Once it full put cover on then get a wrench on the rear brake caliper on the little nipple to open and close it. Then push on the back brakes several time then hold it down while you open that little nipple to let the air out. You need to do this several time until it brakes like it use to.....
Thanks man, that took care of it.
Your entire instruction videos saved me money. Love that these bikes are easy to work on. Everything easy to get to.
I have a 2005 venture royal star midnight. Replacing rear pads at 20,000 miles. My caliper is on the bottom of the swing arm. Any reason why? Thanks.
Next time u should do used brake change bc u need to explain having to wedge the caliber back so you can fit the brakes in it but other than that awesome but come on now video
I wish I could ve that lucky. My caliper is frozen. Pistons will not budge to even do a rebuild. I'm still trying to figure out if there's a cross reference caliper (one from any other model) that works w/out modifications. My RSV is a 99 & can't find used one & to buy new replacement is $400+.
Hey, James....did you find your used caliper yet? (Old post, I know.....but thought I'd pass along a tip if your're still stuck!)
@@michaelscott356 I'm still stuck haha, been riding on just front brakes. Little sketchy at times.
@@michaelscott356what is the tip? 🫠
Y dint u half to squeeze it in with a c clamp??
Hey Frank, where can I buy a set of the cotter pins that hold the back brake pads?
Any hardware store like ACE hardware should have them. If not there, an auto parts store. If you have one of the originals I recommend taking it so you get correct size. You can also usually find them in assortments at auto parts places.
James Hughes I went right to ACE after the video. BAM! THanks buddy. Front and back brakes replaced like a champ!
