In this video I do a very quick and simple brake pad change and caliper service. Even if you don't need new pads it's well worth servicing you calipers once a year at least.

Lol, hummer time! Well done dude :D
Never use a metal hammer on brakes like that it's a ammeter mistake you will crack or brake the calipers
Depends how hard you hit it. You can be overly rough with a mallet and gentle with a hammer.
Never say never.
robertspeed62 is right. If you love your your bike - don't do it.
A rubber hammer would be better if necessary.
As I said before, you can be gentle with a metal hammer and rough with a rubber one
Thanks for the video, it seems that is a more complex process than simply change the pads. Can you list the products you used on the process? Thank you.
Its mainly just the pads but I like to spray the brakes with brake cleaner aswell.
If you were doing a full service it would include a piston clean and new fluid.
Just got a 2004 Honda hornet 599 are they good bought mine these bikes good?
Very good bikes, not the most powerful but very smooth and reliable. You made a good choice my friend.
Thanks for watching and please subscribe
does the windshield help you against the wind?

I rarely have a bike with a screen. I'm normally on some sort of street fighter.
But yes some screens are helpful
Who the fcuk hits the calliper with a steel hammer? He also catches the fork leg with the bloody thing. If you must hit it use a soft faced hammer and don’t hit the fork leg !
I wouldn't call it a hit I would call it a tap. And the answer to your question is me
Hey. Nice vid. What year is your hornet? It looks like it’s in good shape. I have a 2000 hornet. Looks basically the same as yours but not as clean. Just bought new brake pads and will have a go at putting them in soon.
They are great bikes mate, you should be OK doing the pads although if the last service wasn't done well then some of the bolts can be stiff and even break.
Let me know if you get stuck with anything.
The hornet is long gone but I believe it was a 2000 ish one.
Thanks
motorcycle rescuer I got my hornet really cheap and have been doing it up. So far I’ve put new tyres, new rear shock and a new rear hugger on it. Brake pads next. It’s my first bike so I’m learning as I go.
What brake cleaner is that please?
I use lots of different kinds. No particular brand.
@@motorcyclerescuer Please Could you suggest one?
Brake cleaner is brake cleaner mate. Go onto Ebay and write in brake cleaner.
You have 2 choices, ones that you pump out of a spray bottle or one that's in a can. I use both depending on what I'm doing.
Sintered pads or not?
Honestly it dosnt matter to much. Sintered if you ride hard or do the odd track day otherwise whatever fits.
Cheaper pads wear quicker so sometimes it's best to buy a better set that works better and last longer.
@@motorcyclerescuer nah i use the hornet as a scooter. ive got fz1n for the hooligan rides. ive put organic pads on the hornet yesterday but didnt break them in yet. i wasnt sure if i shoud go sintered or not. thanks !
It's the process people want to see, not the explanation of said process. Waste of time of watching just that on you tube
So what exactly aren't you happy with? I'm confused. I've shown you the whole process and talked you through it.
@@motorcyclerescuer I think that guy only watched the start where you cut the video to for taking out a screw and talk about it instead of just letting us watch you take out that screw.
@@An0niem4 the video is fairly old now so hopefully the newer ones are a touch better. I can't film everything sadly as it would be hours long
Wanted to see u put the pads in and how they sit inside
