Quality video. I like the no nonsense, no humour approach. Gives me the confidence to use these for my own maintenance especially on safety related items such as brakes. Thanks
I always refer to your excellent videos before starting some maintenance task on my 2013 Tiger 800xc, as I'm no "real" mechanic, but don't mind doing the basic stuff. Thanks mate!
@@MuddySump Exactly. I used to write instructions manuals for a living and having still or moving visuals is sooooooo much better. Plus, those Haynes service manual images are terrible. ;)
I love how simple this looks except whoever worked on my bike last fitted the pin cover so tight that im buggered at first of the easy stuff! FFS, great vid though. 👍
Hello-. Really appreciated your brake change videos, simple & clear step by step & not all the fluff and stuff. Any input on what I might use to clean off the exposed front exhaust? I’d looked at several things online, but am a bit hesitant/wanted to ask around. I’d read Limeaway or CLR works good. I just am not sure if it’ll hurt any of the other components--? Toss out to your input & expertise. Cheers. M.
Me Still all I’ve ever used is a bit or fine wire wool to give them a scrub. I know there was some kind of bleach people started using a while ago, I never tried it though
Thanks for all your videos,,very helpful,thanks again,I have a question,ever since I changed my pads they make a weird noise almost like metal to metal sound ,I cleaned the new pads few times and the noise doesn't go away,it only happens at slow speed and not all the time,any idea or suggestions?? Thanks again.
@@baetech1982 solucionaste el problema. Yo tengo el mismo inconveniente en estos momentos y me intriga bastante. Sería de gran ayuda conocer tu experiencia, considerando que ha pasado un año. Gracias de antemano
@@gabrielvasquez8288 si gracias, si lo solucione, mi problema era en la cadena, de hecho fue el rubbing strip , se deterioro y la cadena pegaba en el brazo y pensé que el sonido era de los frenos pero era la fricción de la cadena con el brazo porque el rubbing strip ya no tenia superficie.
Awesome! And thank you. I watch all your videos and both my Tiger and my wallet thank you sir. Oh, btw, is the solution you are using to clean kerosene?
Hey man! I've changed the tires and cleaned the brakes. Rear pads are touching the disc and I don't know why! The 14mm bolt was not freely going all the way through. I had to apply some force (less than 27Nm) until the threads reached rear plate. Is that normal? (doesn't seem like it in your video). Pedal was going all the way down, so I thought there was air in the hose. Did the bleeding. There was. But it is exactly as before! Pedal traveling all the way down and pads are touching. Piston is 3mm out only. It seems there is no space for the pads. Could the calliper mount be wrong (14mm bolt or clipper inside?). Help! :-) Could you imagine the issue? Thanks a lot in advance!
Got it! Man! the ABS sensor was touching the ABS disc, not the pads! There is a washer (a washer!) that should go between the ABS mounting piece and the body, not between the screw and the ABS mounting piece. Oh my... I hope I can help some other soul with this tiny thing... Cheers!
@@MuddySump Thanks! Yes, that's what I did. Pads are constantly touching the disc though, making the disc very very hot. The wheel spins slightly less (if I push the pad away with my hand the wheel spins slightly more, but not too much). Piston seems to be working fine. Does that go away after the pads worn out a little? (piston will be closer to the worn out pads, though...). I can see that, when I press the pedal, there is very small angular displacement inwards (0.3mm or so) in the whole calliper mount when pads are press against the disc. Is that normal? Sorry for the free consulting attempt. Cheers!
Eduardo Petrossi what pads have you put in? I’ve seen some aftermarket ones that have been thicker than original ones so not backing off the disc enough until they’re worn a bit
is it just an unclip thing or nut or how does it work? got a tiger at october time and its the first bike ive had with ABS! The Sv650s is a bit easier to work on as it doesnt have the technology wizardary! Great channel though man helped me do sparks and air filter keep up the amazing work :D
MrJIMBOISAWESOME the cable has clips keeping it on the brake line. If you want to remove the sensor too from the bracket then there is a torx 30 screw to take out.
Very useful for me. Unfortunately the subtitles (automatic created) are in netherland. An idea to change this ? Automatic translate in english give some pudding language...
Yes, but only for this video, others are subtitled in english... Add "Hi ! I speak english" to this one. No, I'm kidding, the images are enough to do the job. Thank you.

+Lee Hine thanks 👍🏼
You have saved me an absolute fortune, these videos are brilliant.
Thank you so much
No problem 👍🏻
Thanks for the guides for front and rear, just bought new pads and got the tools/grease etc. to do them at the weekend.
👍🏻

People love to over tighten those covers.
Well done nice straightforward video
Thanks
Finding your vids VERY helpful mate. Cheers from Downunder.
thanks from spain! you could show the metal.piece where support the pads for more complete tutorial! ^^
great video! will change and clean mine saturday! thanks!
André Amaral Thanks, good luck
Thank you for the video. My first general maintenance.
Squirrel
Its brake cleaner. You can get it in big bottles to put in a pump like im using or can get it in aerosol cans too.
Clear & simple, thanks.
👍🏼

What liquid are you using to clean up the calliper?
I've only ever noticed it in aerosol cans. Thanks
Excellent instructor.
+Masonman thanks
You're welcome but I was just stating a fact.
Hi, my sliding bolts were dry and seized, do I also lubricate the sliding bush on the left hand side?
Yes, any moving part can be lubricated
Thanks for all your videos,,very helpful,thanks again,I have a question,ever since I changed my pads they make a weird noise almost like metal to metal sound ,I cleaned the new pads few times and the noise doesn't go away,it only happens at slow speed and not all the time,any idea or suggestions?? Thanks again.
Did you buy some copper grease on the back of the pads? Might be the pad vibrating against the piston.
MuddySump thank you,I didn't use copper grease,I used average grease,,I'll try copper, thanks,I appreciate your help

@@baetech1982 Perfecto Juan, te agradezco la respuesta. Así puedo ir descartando opciones. Buenas rutas, amigo!
Any chance you can post a link for the piston tool? I can't find that sucker anywhere. Thanks Muddysump! Really appreciate your videos!!
I got it off eBay. Search for brake piston tool
nice job 👍
Thanks
Do you need to use specific brake grease on the slider pin/bolt or will copper grease be fine?
You can get silicone grease to go where rubber parts are.
Awesome! And thank you. I watch all your videos and both my Tiger and my wallet thank you sir. Oh, btw, is the solution you are using to clean kerosene?
It’s brake cleaner. I use kerosene/paraffin to clean the chain
Copper grease or normal grease on the two fixing bolts?
Normal grease on the thread less part
Can you use break cleaner to clean the pads?
Yes
Aí sim! Caprichado trabalho!!
Nice, how do you now the screws are tied enough?
The brake pad pin? It's 18nm and the cap is only 3nm. I'm used to how they should feel

@@MuddySump I've put in EBC organic brake pads. The piston is about 1.5mm out. I guess I'll have to wait and see what happens?
LIke the piston grip tool, where did you get it?
Hi, I just got it off ebay
which is the liquid you use to clean ?
Wurth brake cleaner
as the bike is ABS is there any extra things u have to take off like the ABS sensor thing?
+MrJIMBOISAWESOME no, it's exactly the same. Might need to move the cable out of the way but no need to remove the sensor

Hi, can someone please give me a a link to order rear brake pads, Tiger 800 2012 ABS. TIA!
Triumph or eBay. Depending what kind you want
MuddySump what do you recommend?
Thanks 📌🇧🇷👍
🤛🏼
Hi! What is that liquid you used to clean? Thanks from Brasil!!!
+Carolina luz canella hi. It's brake cleaner. Can get it in aerosol cans or in bottles and put it in a pump like what I've got
