How To Service Your Motorcycle Front Brake Calipers | Dr Vstrom Brake Series

A new episode of my Dr Vstrom, brake maintenance video series on how to remove, inspect, clean, lube & remount the front brake calipers. The video was created after a lot of questions/requests on the social media. Whether you ride in winter time or its been a long time since you last serviced your brakes, its always a good idea to give your brake calipers some attention at least once every year & before the new riding season is about to start. Servicing those brake parts & their components is critical as salt, dirt, brake dust & rust tend to accumulate & inhibit their proper operation. Although motorcycle brake calipers are simple in operation they do tend to occasionally suffer from the causes mentioned above & drag or make squeaking or other noises. The issue can usually be traced to badly serviced calipers & their components such as dirty/rusty caliper pistons, corroded caliper pins, cracked caliper boots, etc. It is then time to give them some attention by inspecting, cleaning & lubricating them to handle this problem. This video walks you through the process of doing exactly that & demonstrates on a Vstrom 2017 but the process is the same for all calipers.
