Brake fluid tech video
« on: August 07, 2015, 09:08:49 AM »
Bike Bandit has just published a decent 10-minute-long video detailing the different types of brake fluid.  I have been changing brake fluid ever since disc brakes were first introduced on production motorcycles and there were a few things that I learned by watching this video - such as what actually happens when you mix DOT 5 with DOT 5.1:
