I mean with the caliper still attached to the brakeline

Yea my clamp broke last attempt. So the piston will come completely out by pumping the pedal and I can do these steps without disconnecting the brake line?

Hi all. I'm trying to free a dragging rear brake on my 89 1st gen.vmax. I bled some brake fluid out of both sides but it didn't help. I pulled the caliper off and found the inside piston out about 1/2 inch. The outside piston was all or most of the way in. I pumped the brake pedal both piston...

Which 1 did you buy

I need a new battery for the old vmax.odessy battery is done. I don't want to spend $136. On a new one. I was wondering if there are any cheaper alternatives. I had the Panasonic battery. It didn't last. Any body running a less expensive functioning battery? Thanks ---Chuck

Thanks I'll try it.---Chuck

Hello all. Chuck here. I was wondering if anyone here had ever measured the amperage of the 3 wires coming from the stator. My bike is a 1989. I just replaced the r/r. I clamped an amprobe around each wire I got a reading of 17 amps at idle. Thanks----:bang head:

Hi all. I recently replaced my r/r due to poor battery charging. I soldered the connections from the stator and soldered the "CRIMP". I was getting 13.5v at 1000 rpm and 14.8 volts at 1500rpm. I thought "great". Then I took the bike for a ride. Got the motor warmed enough till the radiator fan...

so who makes a decent battery for our bikes. assuming I dont want to pay $150. or even over $100. thanks --- chuck

what year is your bike---chuck
