| 1. | Refer to service manual for proper final assembly procedure for vehicle being serviced. This includes: a. Proper securing of all brake lines and affected systems with noted exceptions stated here b. Torque values for all fasteners c. Proper type of brake fluid to use d. Proper brake bleeding procedures e. Leak checks | |
| 2. | NOTE When routing accessory brake lines, the intention is: a. Gentle routing without any sharp bends or kinking b. Free uninhibited movement from steer lock to steer lock c. Clearance to any pinch-points throughout steering motion d. Clearance to any potential snags such as ignition switch with key installed e. Avoid any contact with painted surfaces throughout steering motion (fender, gas tank, miscellaneous body components) f. Light structure contact with frame, downtubes or triple clamp may occur but only at full extents of steering motion | |
| 3. | Adjustments to brake line routing can include: a. Use of P-clamp in place of stock wire-form retention (on some models) b. Lower manifold adapter fitting orientation (on some models) c. Line lengths between mounting locations and banjo fitting angles d. P-clamp orientation e. Banjo fitting orientation | |
| 4. | Make sure all brake lines are routed properly. This includes turning handlebars from lock to lock and ensuring that all brake lines do not snag, kink, rub surrounding parts or get pinched between parts. If any of the above occur, check routing of brake lines and adjust as necessary. | |
| 5. | Once all steps in service manual and above have been performed, slowly test ride vehicle. If brakes do not function as intended, repeat bleeding procedure as outlined in service manual. |
