brake

I'm about to take on the job of replacing the rear brake pads on my 1199. Does anybody have any tips? It looks like it would be easier to accomplish with the wheel off, which is easy to do.

The little pin has retracted into its housing and I cant see a way of freeing it. Any thoughts ? Looks like my return nut that hits the sensor didnt allow enough space and has pushed the pin into the housing too far.

i always see an oil thread but i never see anything on break fluid. please tell me: 1 what fluid you use 2 how often do you change 3 type of riding track or street i use amsoil racing 4t for street and track. i change my fluid about every 2 years unless i need to change it more...

So I read somewhere that when I use the front brake lever the ABS automatically gives a little rear brake on its own. Did I dream this or is correct?? Anyone use the rear brake ever anyways? I used to tons on my track bike Triumph 675 but not so much on this Pani. Thanks....

Was re-assembling the controls today and wanted some help. On the clutch master cylinder micro-switch there is a small metal arm on the switch itself that presses onto a rubber nipple behind but on the front brake it just has a small rubber nipple and no arm in front of it. Could someone please...

I just upgraded my clutch and brake levers and no longer need these. They have no scratches and they are in pretty much new condition. $80.00 for both.

Added the Brembo Nichel Cafè Racer Axial Rear Caliper to my bike to compliment my GP4 RX front Calipers. My impressions of these calipers is that it has outstanding feel with great stopping power. It works well with the old OEM Rear master so there is no reason for me to change it out...

When I'm out riding and I stop for gas, I can't help but notice how my rear brake rotor feels much hotter than my fronts even though I use the fronts 100x more. Although there's nothing perceptible at the moment in terms of noise or damage, I'm wondering if the rear is dragging just enough...

I just recently removed and reinstalled my wheels. I did NOT undo any brake lines. I did unbolt the calipers to remove the front wheel.My friend at one point squeezed my levers acting like she was riding the bike. :rolleyes: So I had to push back the pistons with a flat head. Fast forward...

Rear brake seized on me today. Bike felt heavy while I was riding. Got off to see the rear rotor was glowing red. Bike only has 1560 miles, wtf?! Any other people have had break problems?

Installed lightech rearsets today and have a question about wiring the switch, I understand the gist of it but wonder if there is a specific way to splice into the brake light switch (does polarity matter) or is there some other trick to it. Thanks

Hey guys, I am currently using EBC HH pads on my Racebike and they're warped. I've heard that's just what they do. Any suggestions on a race pad that won't warp immediately? What do you use? Thanks.

hello! Is there some one who have this on his bike : Ducati Paginale 1199 Smart Brake Light Modulator Vizi Tec Supabrake | eBay is it good ? no check engine after the installation ?

Anyone done this? Not bled them, actually swapped all fluid. Post up your process. It's my first abs bike. Thanx

Did anybody split the front bake line? Now the line goes first in one caliper and then in the other, I'm wondering if we can have even a better response of the front brake running 2 separate line from the brake pump? Thanks

Just wanted to share some info on where to find Shell products and avoid rip offs at the dealer: I found the Shell brake and clutch fluid from these guys with a 3 days turn around: https://www.lightningkarts.com.au/ hope it helps
