Title: Brake Upgrade (checklist)
Post by: AR5ENAL on May 06, 2004, 04:23:00 PM
hey all, i'll be upgrading my front brake soon, once i get all the parts from ronayers.com.  here's what i have planned:

clean caliper
galfer ss line
galfer 'green' pads
galfer DOT4 fluid
bleed brakes

new levers
srinath's handlebars

i also ordered some new bits for the front master cylinder, because the rubber seal is looking pretty nasty and cracked.  the last two mods aren't really brake related, but i figure i may as well throw them on at the same time.  is there anything i'm missing?  i don't expect to have to rebuild either the caliper or the FMC, so i didn't order new pistons or anything.  just asking for a heads up on anything that might ruin my day when i start wrenchin'

TIA
