Motorcycle Rotor & Brake Replacement Adjustments

Video Transcript

"All right. Well, now we've got the wheel on. We've got the calipers, everything's spinning nice and neat, just the way it should. And at this time you can go ahead and check with the brake lever, just give it a spin, and what's going to happen is there's going to be some pressure that needs to be built back up. And you can just squeeze this brake until it gets real good. So now it's working just the way it did before it got here, if not better. So what I'm going to do, is I'm just going to go around and check all these bolts for the calipers, make sure they're all tight. That's good. That one's good. You can go back and check the axle bolt one more time. Nice and tight. And at this time, we are going to remove the stand. So you just lift on it real slow. Just lower it down. Bam! Make sure everything looks right, nothing's off. Everything looks fine. And basically that's how you take the wheel off, change the rotors, change the brakes, do everything. Everything short of actually doing the actual fluid part, which I'm going to get to right now, and just kind of walk you through. But, in a nut-shell, that's how you do brakes and rotors on a motorcycle."
