brake

In the process of doing the judder spring install on my hypermotard 821 I found the bolt that holds the brake lever in place has stripped all but 2 thread out of the mount. Fixing isnt to difficult but I'm trying to make sure I have the thread size/ pitch correct. M8x1.25 is what seems to work...

Bent and fixed the brake pedal and then bent the shifter pedal, Looking to buy replacement options.

So i tried switching out my brake and clutch levers the other day and when i put OEM back on my brake light is always on but the brake itself is not..... also because of the sensor being triggered i can not change my riding mode. Is this something thats an easy fix i can do myself or do i need...

The wind knocked over my bike... The only damage that is a hassle is the bent rear brake pedal. Any advice on straightening it without breaking it? Thanks!

Anyone have one before? Any solutions?

Did some cursory searching but didn't find much beyond the usual complaints about brake feel. Woke up yesterday to a slightly mushier front. At the same settings the lever would hit my middle finger under hard braking (still stops fine) whereas it didn't before. Being the nervous person I am...

Hey guys I have a quick question for you SP owners out there. I recently bought some cheap levers from ebay to adjust the brake lever closer to the bar. When I went to install the brake side lever it did not fit, as the stock lever utilizes a little plunger to push the master cylinder. The...

So today it dawned on me that the rear brake is no longer doing anything. The pedal goes down really far now too. I always put the brakes on together and for that reason didn't really notice anything wrong with the back. I was stopped on a downhill and tried using the rear brake by itself and to...

I recently noticed a lot of play in the rear brake pedal. Is there a simple adjustment? The fluid level is in the normal range, and the pads are fine. Thanks in advance for any advice. Warren

since replacing the rear brake pedal the brake light has been stuck on. when I turn the ignition on the tail light comes on then almost immediately the brake light. there doesn't seem to be a switch of any kind for the back brake so does anyone know how it works or how to fix it ? thanks

I bled my rear brake and was 33% successful: the previous 3 inches of travel has been reduced to "only" 2 inches of travel. So that equates roughly going from "this is f'ing useless" to "well... it will keep the bike from rolling when I'm stopped". This was doing remove rear caliper, bleed...

I'm selling a complete set - 2 front brake sets, and 1 rear brake - of the EBC Double-H Sintered Brake Pads. They are unused and in their original packaging. I got them as part of a package and already have a set. On ebay, the set is $100 not including shipping (unless you have prime)...

A guy in a car just pulled up next to me and mentioned it to me. Upon pulling over and testing I find that pulling the front brake lever no longer activates the brake light. The rear brake still activates it properly though. So, before I give myself a heart attack looking at the...

Perhaps you won"˜t believe but I have to share my today's experience. After some spirited riding my rear wheel blocked. Not suddenly but gradually, over three or four seconds. I managed to stay upright and to bring the bike to stop but pulling the clutch didn't relieve the blockage. When I...

Hi, anybody ever break brake pedal ... only the end ? I wonder if there is a way change only the end with rubber cover or I have to buy all brake control lever Thanks!!

I've had problems with my front brake. It required a couple of pumps to get a good feel. So whilst the Hyper was in for the 1st service I asked them to take a look. They bleed the brakes but in the end have ordered me a new master cylinder.

Does everyone's reservoir hose look like this? I guess that's the way Ducati designed it but, it doesn't seem right.

Am I the only one out there that enjoys this combination? 2 fingers for the brake, 3-4 for the clutch - it's just the way I ride. So I thought great, just get a set of those adjustable length levers and set it up like that. Only problem is, IMO, those adjustable length levers feel ab-sol-ute-ly...

anyone know where i can locate info on how to remove the clutch side lever to replace with a short lever? thank you

Hello two wheeled folks. I've encountered a little problem while changing the rear brakes fluid. It's not the first time but this time it went completely wrong and I don't know why. I ended having swapped the fluid with air. Bummer. Here's how I usually proceed. Open the fluid tank and...
