Posted October 5, 200717 yr Hi all, hoping someone could shed some light on the rear caliper of my r1, because it has two bleed nipples? is there an order on which to bleed first? i can happily bleed the front brakes with no problems ive just never bled anything with two nipples? And if anyones got an opinion on what type of pad works best on the rear, ie; std yamaha or uprated hh? Anyway thanks again y'all and ride safe!
October 5, 200717 yr Can't really help with the bleed nips but the fitting of anything other than standard pads to the rear would not be a good idea unless you have heavy usage. Suggest that you bleed the one closest to the brakeline first.
