hello guys can anybody tell me how to take the rear brake cabel off my 210 gas gas pro 250? am thinking of changing all my cabels to red. is it an easy job or would i be beter taking it to a shop?

Your 2010 has cable brakes???? I think you will find that the brakes are hydraulic and there are hoses that go from the master to the slave cylinders, both front and rear. I suggest you read up on bleeding the brakes before you make the change.

should be simple mate. when i work on brakes, i have a syringe (identical to the one i measure my oil for fuel in)... with a bit of plastc piping that joins between the bleeding nipple and the syringe. i use this for reverse bleeding when refilling with brake fluid. much better results for my bike. heres the link for the manual for your bike. makes work easier.

Good luck bud had a look at your picture of it and looks like a tidy bike

thats_a_five - ''your 2010'' has cable brakes????

the rear brake line goes through the swingarm, and you have to remove the swingarm most likely to thread it out and then another back in there... It is inside the swingarm, you know, kind of for a reason: So it cannot get damaged by rocks and ledges, you know, unless the swingarm breaks, or of course the 2 little exposed bits somehow get knicked. Id spend the money elsewhere honestly, like some carbon fibre guards or something, even pinstripes... but that is me.

Someone mentioned mineral oil. I just wanted to point out that is only for the clutch. Brakes use brake fluid (DOT4).
