Go out and get it as muddy as you can. Drop it clean your self off and keep riding. Get home wash it well and admire how good it looks. Then say to your self that was fun. And then do it again. These bikes are amazingly forgiving. The fun factor immense!!

A clean bike is a happy machine. You next wipe it down and see what needs maintenance. It's my procedure every time I ride.

I too was skeptical about this procedure. But give it a try. On my beta it decreased my front brake lever travel by at least 30%. You have nothing to loose and easy to do. Now if I could only get the rear brake to operate more efficiently I would be happy. Ive done everything to improve its operation. Pads and bleeding. The rotor is slotted. I may try a solid one. Its operation at best is either on or off. My old sherco has much better feel and a solid rotor. Ive rode a 4T and by far the best brakes over all on any bike. And it too has a solid rotor . Am I on to something? Marty

don't let the tube slip off the bleeder. the pads are toast after they are contaminated with brake fluid. the reverse method works great
