SV650 Rear calliper clean and Hel braided brake line install 

I am so happy that I found a channel that caters to the SV650 specifically. My only worry is that you dont have many subscribers or views and that youll end up not making more videos because of this. That would be tragic. Please dont stop making these videos if you can help it. You are our only hope!

One of the best videos I have seen explaining the method of completing the task, with the added bonus of what to do with seized pins :) Really good vid.

Awesome, just did this following your guide and the brake is good as new. Btw a piece of wood can be cut to tightly fit inside the brake pistons and then placed in a vice to make into a excellent piston remover that will not damage the metal. Could not even push the pistons with the lever but went straight off corrosion, messed up seal and all.

top marks for your instructional videos. . no hate intended here, to avoid risk of brake failure people need to know that those fluid seals must be fitted as per the workshop manuals from suzuki or tokico. those seals normally have a taper on the inner side . regards

You are the coolest mom in the world. I'm lucky to have a wife thats just like you. Thank you for the great videos, I am completely breaking down my 2007 SV and you have helped a lot.

when putting new pins in, good idea to put copperslip on them to stop corrosion in future

Should have worn gloves ('break fluid is hella corrosive'). However I love your videos and have found them both useful and informative. Thanks!

Brilliant video, well explained and demonstrated!

the piston could be easily removed with an air pump help. Just plug pump tightly to caliper where hydraulic hose usualy goes and piston should comes out like a charm.

3 Years too late for this comment, but, heating the calliper to about 100C (aluminium) would expand it much more than steel pins and removal would be much easier. No rubber parts, so no risk for damage. Heat gun, or even Oven in this case.

great video very well described and very helpful, you have made amazing videos, i was just wondering where you got new bolts for the cailper that put back together and back to bike the hex heads, many thanks and keep up the good work

Great video, one question !! Lots of people stress about how bad is the brake fluid on your skin , however you don’t seem bother one bit . !! What are your thoughts for all the viewer out there . Thanks

Thanks for another great "DIY" video for bikes and SV's specifically. I must say that it took me several minutes to realise that those great hairy hands weren't yours Tamsen, ahahahha (no offence "TJ") I know that brake fluid isn't good for your skin (worse for paint) but the brake cleaner spray can be nastier esp. if inhaled! I noticed the use of "copper grease" on the back plates of the pads, but why not use it for the bolts? What was it that "AJ" put on them please? I love a bit of work on the bike I could sit and watch for ages - oh I just did! :>)

Superb!

Hi. Total newbie here. Thank you so much for your time creating this great tutorial I'm planning to add the new Brake lines soon. Do I have to take the complete breaking system off the bike? I'm just worried I will damage something! :) What spare would I need to purchase before I do so? Thanks

Where did you get that rebuild kit from?? Especially one that includes the caliper bolts!

I would recommend to add wd40 on to someone corroded bolts and parts so they last longer.

I would have poured boiling water on to caliper before banging them out, much kinder to the ali caliper.

hi excellent video. was there a good improvement in brake performance?

you could do with a vice this is mike by the way. at the mo i am chopping a cb 750f2 honda ;-)

A little late. But what kit did you buy and where from. Cheera

a funnel would have useful when taking the brake line off the rear brake......

where did you get the pins and seal from ?

Just trying to remove my Pins, just a poor design as far as the pins are concerned....

Bad callipers design throw those hellish things away
