Re: Good brake fluid?

Motul **** the rest There's stuff w a higher boiling point but it costs a lot more per bottle.

Motul RBF 600 Specifications:
DOT Rating - 4
Dry Boiling Point - 594°F
Wet Boiling Point - 421°F

Silkolene Pro-Race 2000 Brake Fluid
Wet boiling point 195˚C (383˚F)
Initial boiling point exceeds 300˚C (572˚F)

And the silkolene is $10 more per bottle.
