- In this video I take you through the process of flushing out the factory brake fluid that comes in these Chinese Dirt Bikes such as the Hawk 250, TaoTao TBR7, Vitacci Raven, TT250, and more. I replaced mine with some quality DOT4 Fluid. Some say the fluid that comes in these are fine but this is so cheap and easy to do, why chance it. I instantly could get a better feel on the front brake lever with the new fluid.
This process works on any motorcycle, but if you have a Hawk 250 or other China bike, this would be a great way to ensure the best performance and safe operation of your machine.

New hawk owner. Glad I'm not the only one who had some rather "interior" garaging and wrenching setup at least for a time. Also glad to see some very recent Hawk videos.
Thanks for watching! Ya I'd love a garage but for now my porch and the dining room are working ok...HAHA
I have my Brozz in and out of my basement lol! Getting good at getting it lined up for the doorway.
Very helpful! Nice video. Just got one of these build and took my first ride today! Fun bike for around town
It is, good cheap fun. I ride alot of back roads with it but it handles surprisingly well on trails also. The rear suspension could use some work and I have something on the way for that ;-)
Hey there! Do you know what size the banjo bolt it for the master and caliper? I want to change my Hawk DLX brake lines to braided ones but can’t find any specs on them. Thanks!
I've not done this upgrade myself, although I'm a fan of braided lines. From what I know the banjo bolt size is 10mm x 1.25mm, I've thought of changed to a hydraulic rear brake switch myself.
YUP, i didnt change out the brake fluid, and in just 18 miles both front and rear master cylinders went out, the stuff coming out looked like water mixed with baby oil, it was NOT brake fluid, so now i wait for parts, it ruins the rubber plunger making the brake pressure, and then pumps nothing, also on the carb, had to toss the factory on, and taking off the little intake at the motor, there was thick hardened black paint going across right at the O ring where it mounts on at, so it was not getting a good seal, then take off the rear wheel, at the hole where the axle goes in at, the outer seals, one was smashed. looks like they used a screw driver and beat on it, so many little hidden things they did to these things,
I decided to just not even take a chance...brake fluid is cheap. Also a good idea to spray down the pads and rotors with brake parts cleaner. I should have shown that. These are great bikes, but you have to put a little extra TLC in them up front for sure.
@@skydcontrol Spot on with that comment. Good bikes, but sometimes poor quality control. Mine is near 8,000 miles and going strong. They'll just run forever *if* they are properly prepped out of the crate and they didn't get thrown under a forklift in China or when coming over on the boat.
@@dustinsegers4534 absolutely - take a little extra time up front, it's worth it! The engines are engineered to be practically bulletproof. I think they'd run on used french fry oil.
Subbed thanks man
