DOT 3, 4 or 5.1 ... depends on your bike and recommended fluid. DOT 3 and DOT 4 are both glycol ether based, and will mix just fine. DOT 4 has a higher boiling point, so depending on the application, it may be necessary to use that instead of DOT 3. ***Do not mix DOT 5 with either of them, as it is silicone based.*** DOT 4 has a higher boiling point than DOT 3. You can use DOT 4 where DOT 3 is called for, but not the reverse. Using DOT 3 in a DOT 4 brake risks boiling the brake fluid. (Glycol-based fluid can absorb water over time, which leads to corrosion.)

Excellent video. Thank you.
I’m so happy that you are not my dad
Is only DOT4 or DOT 5.1 good?
DOT 5,1 is good.
Again. Why you add water on tanks?
I can't understand what you are mean. Where i am adding water?
@@mastorakos I mean at the end you cleaned brake fluid tanks with water.
I do this because brake fluid are caustic and can cause corrosion. You have also to protect your hands.
Nice job thanks
