- Sponsored By @KINCROME -In this workshop we will not only teach you how to service your brakes, we also explain the design and components of different braking systems, from cable to hydraulic, and discs to drums.
The hands on servicing component will include showing you how to check brake lines, testing brake fluid, changing brake pads, and how to bleed and adjust your brakes.
After gaining an understanding of how the various braking systems work, we'll proceed with a hands-on demonstration of how to perform a brake pad/shoe change on the two most common setups; disc & drum brakes. After this we'll work through brake adjustment, brake fluid testing, and fluid bleeding.
This workshop is suitable for all levels, and no prior motorcycle or mechanical experience is required.
