  • Quick front brake job on my 2013 Kawasaki Vulcan Vaquero 1700. This should be mostly the same on every Vulcan 1700 model.

    Thanks James, I think I can change them out no problem after watching this. You the Man!!

      Hope it works out well for ya 🤘. As others have said, you can do it without taking the calipers off, but I like to clean the brake dust off the pistons.

    Thank you so much for this video. I am a horrible mechanic but you explained this and broke it down very simple. I had absolutely no problems doing my 1st brake pad change. I hope you make more videos.

    Good video bro! I just ordered a set of pads off amazon front and rear for $26.99. They are Sintered so they will last long! Just bought a 2011 two weeks ago and brakes squeak. I see meat left but Ill changed them and keep the old ones for emergency!

    No need to remove the caliper bolts, just take out the tiny retaining screws on the anti rattle plate and the center bolt, takes me 10 minutes to do each side on my Voyager

    Thank you for the video. Is your Vaquero ABS?

    • @duff8402
      @duff8402  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nope, no abs

    Did you use lock tight for the caliper bolts

    • @quacker998
      @quacker998 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, just the correct torque 25nm

    Mine is a little loud when I'm braking. (Not squeekin) Do you think I need to change the pads??

    • @duff8402
      @duff8402  ปีที่แล้ว

      Sounds like you've got metal on metal. Definitely need to inspect them ASAP

    Those pads looked like new.. send them to me... id use them.. 😆 factory front pads should last about 30k or more...maybe 60k

    • @duff8402

      They weren't terrible but the rotors were warped all to hell. I was just changing the cheapest thing first to make sure it was the rotors.

      You would also have to remove the retainer clip correct?

      How do you push the pistons in for the new pads to fit in?
