what up fellow stunters... im new to this. im in my falling stages. haha

anyway last week my bike slid and caught cage..then flipped.. snapped that plastic part where my break fluid res hose connects to....fixed it. jb weld is the ****... but all i had was dot 3 break fluid to fill her back up

now i cant indo......

what my bike does now is slow to a stop when i attempt to indo.. and there isnt air in the lines, at least i dont think so...i've already bled em enough.

anyway... ? does the break oil make a difference or should i get a new break?

 

you should be using dot 4 brake fluid ....

 

or rbf600 or motul dot 5.1

 

thank you sir

 

5.1 has silicone in it and shouldn't be used on a system not designed for silicone .

 

ive felt the difference in the motul oil for my engine... and i love it

do you strongly recommend i go to 5.1 for my brakes?

 

Dot 4 has a higher boiling point and is recommended......but Dot 3 should work. you probably have some air left in the lines

 

thanks.. imma check the lines again and if that doesnt work.. imma get some dot 4

i probably should be runnin that anyway. but thanks fellas

 

Motul RBF600

 

+1.....that silicone **** will deteriorate ur lines and you will have a bad failure when you are showing off for some hot chick.....go dot 4 or check ur manual specs for the year of your bike dude. motul is good...i use it in my 600 but everyone swears by their own type.

 

brake

 

+1 anything that dot 5 has silicone in it and can not be used in any break system that has dot 3 or 4 in it. Theres a chemical in the dot 5 that will react to the 3 and 4 and will break down the rubber o-rings, seals, and the inside of your break lines. Read the back of the bottle...

but to answer your question RBF600.

 

thanks everybody

 

If I had DOT 3 in my 01 f4i and I change my lines to SS and bleed everything can I use the RBF600 or should I just upgrade to DOT 4? If so what kind of DOT 4 should I use?

 

+ 1 also you can never get that **** flushed out of your lines once you put it in your brake system

 

use dot 1 add lucas and put ur dial on setting 5

 

seriously use rbf600 or bremboo fluid.

dont cheap out when it come to brake fluids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

There is a Motul non-silicone DOT 5.1 BRAKE FLUID it is 100% synthetic, polyglycol-based and does not contain silicone. Should I use the Motul 5.1 or just go with any DOT-4 fluid like Honda or Belray? I cant find any Motul RBF600 thats been recommended by everyone around by me and dont have time to wait for it to be shipped, but I can get my hands on the Motul 5.1. It doesnt have silicone in it so should I go with that or just DOT-4? Has anyone used this non-silicone version of the 5.1?

 

use the motul rbf600. i got an extra bottle if you wanna buy it from me so you dont gotta wait. not really an extra bottle coz i like to have extra laying around but ill sell it to you and then pick up a new bottle. hit me up if you want it pm or call me if you want it in case i dont see your reply here.
