BigTater? the interceptor you own was always my dream bike and I respect you as a smart man for buying and owning one.

Re: lately my bike is needing brake line bleeding a lot. hel

It takes between 600 to 800 psi of brake fluid pressure to act on the caliper,,, 45 psi is minor,,, like I said before and repeat again the perpose is to keep pressure on the lines for a much quicker reaction of the brakes such as is required on high speed racing bikes such as crotch rockets,,, not ...

Re: lately my bike is needing brake line bleeding a lot. hel

Pressure at the lever pushes the cups at the caliper out, causing the pads to push against the rotor, causing friction to slow down the rotational speed of the wheel. Any extra pressure in the syste...

I am happy riding alone, when I do ride with somebody else I get tired of slowing down and waiting so they could keep up with me, they can't match my riding skills, i speed up on a tight curve where they slow down and use their brakes, they are afraid to pass a car cause they have no confidence in t...

Re: lately my bike is needing brake line bleeding a lot. hel

I think its funny how some of you people could be so proud and bull-headed that you wouldn't even try to back bleed your brakes, ha ha ha ! I guess the design engineers that over-see the assembly of the motorcycle at the factory are just a bunch of dunder heads because they want to back bleed it, ha...
