how much brake fluid ?

Post by babulin2002 »

Hi to all,
Silly question, how much brake fluid should i get in order to bleed the brakes on my 94 R 1100R ?
Found all the info how to do it etc, but not how much fluid it actually takes. It has been bled last time about 2 years ago, and it is brown and low in the reservoir, high time for a change :)
Thanks !
cheers

ABS or Non-ABS?

I think a pint bottle is sufficient but I'd get 2 - if it remains sealed it should by OK for your next bleed if you don't use it/open it

Incase you need instructions - see below
