@Gary quick question I the F6B with aftermarket rotors & pads, it seem that when I apply brakes I get a grabbing feel and pulling to the left, was that one of the issue you were having with your after market pads, I also thinking if it might be the bleeding issue since I had to change my brake lines...If you have any feed back on this issue please provide...Thanks
What? Chris all you have to do is pry the calliper piston back with a flat screwdriver then remove that 5 mm Allen screw .. Afterwards pull the pads out. Clean your Allen screw ; put in your new pads ; grease/replace /torque the Allen screw. then pump your brakes up. I guess the upside to your method is you're learning a lot about your bike and you get to use all those new tools. My Wing has 110,000 km on it so I'll be replacing the fronts for the second time and the rear for the first time.
I came here looking for a brake job. This was just changing pads on the front. Need to show rebuilding the calipers and the master cylinders, as well as the bleeding procedure for it to be a brake job.
I'm thinking the Spyder probably doesn't need such a jack, but out of curiosity, how much would a jack like yours cost? And did you have a website address for the jack?
Chris in your brake job video you installed a brand new Dunlop Elite 4 tire on the rear did you also balance it and if so how did you do it ? Philly D.
It would have been appreciated if you had at least mentioned greasing the O-ring on the pad retention bolts, as well as the axle spacer, and torque numbers.
I do my brakes by pressing the calipers in with a flat head screw driver slowly until they bottom out remove the rubber car then remove pin with 5mm wrench and pads slide out by themselves then put new pads in and reinstall 5mm pin and torque to 13 foot pounds and you done Listen there’s absolutely no reason to remove calipers or wheel leave everything mounted and remove one 5mm pin on front left side then front right side and lastly right rear then pump brakes back ip a go 15 minutes tops and no need to jack the bike up either but Chris is evidently removing all this so the viewers can see what he is explaining
Hi Chris you made my husband buy a Goldwing LOL now l would like for you to go out riding with us in July. We will be in your home town the week of July the 10th so let me know if you would like to meet up and go for a cruise on the GOLDWINGS.
I hope nobody uses your video as instruction on brake pad change, you do not need to remove the calipers or wheel, its a 5 minute job !!, I can only assume you remove the Engine to change the air filter. Check out Partzilla's Videos for the correct way to do the job.
I have a different variety of tools that I have been collecting down through the years from Matco, to Craftman, as well as some lower end tools like Great Neck.
Chris, I have to wonder how many times do you get interrupted when working on the Gold Wing? And as to your maintenance on the brakes, with the shop setup that you have, I should ride the Spyder down there, and have you take a look at, and service the brakes....... :-)
There are two Allen bolts to remove, that’s it. Taking the front tire/Axle and all your chrome isn’t necessary. You wasted lots of ride time. You can change the break pads while it is on the center stand. SMHL
The brakes and tires really didn't need changing, but I rather be proactive, than reactive. Can I sell you some slightly used brake pads? lol just kidding.
If we all lived closer together we could chip in and buy a proper machine, I have seen them new for a grand. The cost to mount and balance a tire around here is 45/50 bucks each...
Chris you a bad mother (shut yo mouth). I would like the kuryakin lighted saddle bag and lighted trunk for my Goldwing like the ones that you installed for Memphis Mike on his bike.

Guys bike, shop and skill level are top notch! Sure, couldve done it without removing the tire but way more thorough to do so. Thanks!
Just curious as to why you removed the front wheel?
I reinstalled the OEM pads on my '12 Goldwing today. I had tried a aftermarket ceramic less dust but less stopping power too!!

Thanks for showing what it really takes to change pads. Yea, I guess I'll take it to the dealer. But, kudos for your own skill with that.
You do not have to remove the calipers to change the pad, it's a 10-minute job!
Push the calipers in take out the 5mm bolt an the pads fall right out this is way over kill
I never knew the Goldwing was single sided swing arm...... Cool Vid

Tell the truth... you didn't need brakes, you just needed an excuse to use that new JACK. 😂👍🏼
You are so correct, dang I'm busted, lol.

If you are removing rotors yes follow the video steps
Where is the rear brake master cylinder reservoir on a 2001 GL 1800A?

I should be available around that time, but I will know for sure later. Where are two you coming from?
We are coming from New York.
Okay cool we have bike night every Wednesday night downtown on Beale Street, all bikes are welcomed. www.bealestreet.com/bike-night-on-beale
OK cool I look forward to it. I will get in touch when we get close to that date.
I need a slot for mid July. Tires and brakes should do it. That and some BBQ. 😂😂
I charge less than the dealers, lol.
I'm doing mine this month. I'll,let the dealer do tires, but they want crazy money for my pads over here. Be safe.
Do you have a video on bleeding brakes ?
I hope nobody uses your video as instruction on brake pad change, you do not need to remove the calipers or wheel, its a 5 minute job !!, I can only assume you remove the Engine to change the air filter. Check out Partzilla's Videos for the correct way to do the job.
You give us do it your selfers a boost of confidence. How many miles are on those brakes?
Thanks Bob, only 13K on the old brakes, they had plenty of life, but I change them since I was already there.
Chris Caliente - smart man:)
hey Chris I just wanted to know why did you have to take right wheel off to change the brakes just wonder...
Good question Jimmy, changing the brakes doesn't require taking the wheels off, but I took the wheels off to put on new tire tires.
new jack, new brake souds good chris one cuestión what brand are your tools?
I have a different variety of tools that I have been collecting down through the years from Matco, to Craftman, as well as some lower end tools like Great Neck.

My phone rang about 3 times when I was doing my brakes, but I edited it out.

Why was the wheel removed?
Changing tires
Way more work removing rotors and tire It's not needed
Got dizzy watching all the zooming and distortion.
how many miles do you have on your 2016 wing?
Just over 13k.
Brakes already??? You only have what 13,000 miles ?
The brakes and tires really didn't need changing, but I rather be proactive, than reactive. Can I sell you some slightly used brake pads? lol just kidding.
😂😂👌🏼
Did you mount both of those new tires yourself?
Bass Player I tried but was unsuccessful, so I let Honda mount my new tires on the rims for me.
If we all lived closer together we could chip in and buy a proper machine, I have seen them new for a grand.
The cost to mount and balance a tire around here is 45/50 bucks each...
I purchased a no-mar cycle hill motorcycle tire changer few years ago they run about $400. Money well spent!
Honda put the tires on the rims for me.
Try a new camera mount, sort of un-watchable

Use this one they show the front brakes to
I wish you'd talk more when doing the video.. explain what you are doing, the size of the bolt, why you are doing it. Thanks for the video.
How much price wise?
The Jacks start around $450.
