No the shop did the fluid. Going to bounce the front forks and see if that cures the issue.

Changed pads, changed fluid… Now i HAVE a JUDDER!!!!! So many problems… never had any of these issues with my R1. What should I do now? Im going take pads out and put them back in. See if it cures the judder. My friend said that I should loosen the pinch bolts then push down on the front forks...

They used a machine… Looked a bit like a spray painting gun. They sucked and filled and sucked and filled and sucked… Cleaned calipers too… Pads still binding. Im frustrated . The pads were slightly low so im hoping new pads will stop the binding… If not… I dont know what Im going to do.

me too… happening tomorrow… wish me luck.

yes… came from park lane… they said I should change the brake fluid £58 + vat and use DOT 5.1 £40 and recommended the calipers be clened £??????...

yes… cheap materials being used… All my banjos , nuts , bolts and all sorts look like poo too… I might ask if they we replace them too...

done , everything addressed . New head lights and tail lights , new sump , oil change , stand recall , quickshifter… Sorted…

parkitt did so im assuming they did it right. ill double check that

2012 model , 10000 miles on clock. bmw said they probably need cleaning... when you have the bike on a front paddock stand the wheel spins but stops very quickly...

Ok, my front brakes are binding . I took the calipers off , removed pads the gave them a clean with a tooth brush . Still binding… What else can i/should i try. What step by step method do you guys recommend ? Thanks guys.

three sumps???? BMW just replaced my sump under warranty… Is there some defect in the sumps?

this is what they said to me… " The bike must have been cleaned with a cleaning product that wasnt used properly . The product is ok to use when the bike is wet but not when dry" Now… they couldnt tell me what product. And they concluded this from a visual point of view. But the screen is...

thats what i hear...

going to put some dot 5.1 (not sure if thats standard). I can bleed brakes myself but im concerned that the ABS will need doing to so may have to go to a specialist...

I need to change my brake fluid on my s1000. Is it a brake fluid change like any other or does the abs complicate things? also… what fluid do you guys use?
