Dead Gen 1

[pete]

Just out of idle curiosity do they purposly put things that should be easily accesable in the most difficult places or places that mean dismantling half the bike? I want to top up my rear brake res and it looks like I will have to remove the whole rear fairing.

Also those diabolical fasteners and positions...surely they could have come up with something better? Maybe that should be the mods they do to the next gen....as well as bumping it up to 1450 cc...lol

hi steve, just a little tip I do, is never top up the master cylinders once they get low its usually time to replace pads and when u do replace them u wont have brake fluid spilling every where when u compress the piston to fit new pads in, you'll still need to get to the m/c to remove the top and push in the rubber seal but at least u wont have brake fluid spilling every where. jat

but yeah I agree with your frustration im needing to do the rear pads in my gen 2.
