Instructions to install our Billet Hydraulic Brake Kit with Nylon Brake Lines

***We recommend that you remove the red boot on the front of the master cylinder and
 pack it with a Marine type grease (Non-Water Soluble grease).
This will help prolong the life of the master cylinder, by helping to keep out sand, mud, dirt.
For more information on this please visit the maintenance section on our support page.

***Important, Do not bleed kit while it is installed on the bike. bleed brake before installation.
**There can be no tension on the master cylinder arm while bleeding.
** Use only DOT 5 Brake fluid in this kit.

1.Cut nylon brake line to desired length and attach the nylon brake lines to the master cylinder and caliper as shown in picture.

2. Bleed as per the instructions included in the kit or visit the bleeding section on our support page.

3. Bend or Grind away as needed, the bracket that held the old brake cable/spring.
So there is room for the linkage

4. Remove the old caliper and bracket and install the new rear brake bracket and caliper. Add shims or washers between the bracket and the caliper as needed to center the pads on the rotor. (Note: The rotor floats.)

5. Mount the front master cylinder bracket, as shown in picture.

6. Add washers between the bracket and  master cylinder, as needed, so there is clearance for the kick starter.

7.  Attach the brake yoke to the master cylinder arm. Place the threaded rod through the
hole in the linkage connection on the brake pedal and then adjust the linkage so that your brake pedal is fully retracted and tighten everything as needed on the linkage.

8. If running with stock foot guards, you may need to add washers between the frame and the foot guard as shown in picture.

9.Adjust the brake pads using an Allen wrench and turning the bolts on the side of the caliper. You want to adjust the brake pads so they are almost touching the rotor, without any drag.
***Please note as your brake pads wear you can keep adjusting the pads in, for longer use.

10. After adjusting the brake pads where you would like them. It is very important to take off the red cap on the master cylinder and then pull on the master cylinder arm several times, this allows the fluid in the master cylinder to place more fluid in the caliper. After pulling on the master cylinder arm several times you will need to refill the master cylinder, so that it is full. Then put the red cap back on the master cylinder. (This process can be done on or off the bike.)
***Note you will need to repeat this process any time you adjust your brake pads.
