Bleeding/changing brake fluid in front
system
L
Note:
This description applies to brake filling and bleeding
devices with vacuum extraction of the brake fluid at
the brake caliper.
If other devices are used, comply with their manu-
facturers ’ instructions.
•
Place the motorcycle on its side stand and turn
the handlebars all the way to the left.
•
Repeatedly pull front brake lever lightly to expel
air from brake master cylinder.
•
Place motorcycle on its centre stand.
•
Place the front wheel and the handlebars such
that the brake fluid expansion tank is level.
•
Tighten the handlebar and secure the front wheel
in this position.
e
Important:
Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with
painted motorcycle parts as brake fluid destroys
paint.
•
Remove front reservoir cap with rubber dia-
phragm, draw off the old brake fluid and clean
the reservoir.
•
Refit the reservoir cap with rubber diaphragm.
•
Remove the brake pads.
•
Use the reset device, BMW No. 34 1 531 , and
the positioning piece, BMW No. 34 1 532 , to
press back and position the brake caliper pis-
tons on the left and right.
•
Remove reservoir cap with rubber diaphragm,
draw off the old brake fluid and clean the reser-
voir.
e
Important:
When adding brake fluid, do not allow it to enter the
holes for the reservoir lid screws.
•
Top up the brake fluid level to the “ MAX ”
mark (arrow).
•
Connect the brake bleeding device to the bleed
screw of the left-hand brake caliper.
e
Important:
During the fluid-change and bleeding procedure,
make sure that the fluid replenishing hole is always
below the level of the brake fluid, otherwise air will
be drawn into the brake system.
Bleed the system again if this happens.
•
Open the bleed screw.
•
Draw off brake fluid until it emerges clear and
free from air bubbles.
e
Important:
On account of the vacuum extraction process, it
might not be possible to tell whether there is brake
fluid in the hose of the brake bleeding device when
it is free of bubbles.
In this case, bleed the system manually.
