Hey Motonosity, I actually just did some steel lines on my Bandit. It does take a while, and what I ended up having to do is tie the brake lever to the handle bar overnight, so the bubbles can work their way to the top of the system by the master cylinder. When you get back to it, just play with the lever by moving it only 1cm - 2cm about 20 times making sure to keep the fluid topped off, because all the air in the system will be right at the valve in the master cylinder, and will come out very easy, letting fluid into where the air gathered. After I did that, the calipers only needed one or two rounds of bleeding, and it was very firm.
installed stainless lines on my grom and ruckus, couldnt get pressure on lever when i tried bleeding it. so i took the lever off and started pumping the piston by the master cylinder with a nut driver. nut driver allows you to push the piston in deeper to get pressure build up. the lever doesnt allow you to compress the piston deep enough get pressure. good luck on the build . looks good
Awesome Crf bro! Love it! Usually more fan of spoke rims, but these actually suited your bike extremely good! been watching through every one of your Crf building videos the last couple of hours, and I'm impressed over the finish! Keep on like that!
Brakes take a lot more fluid than you think. Just keep going. when I put new brakes on my Quad it took half a bottle of brake fluid to get full pressure. Hope this helps.
When you do new calipers and lines you should pump the fluid in from the bottom with a vacuum pump to avoid air bubbles. once full you cap the res, and can then use the pump to pressurize the line.
So I kind of missed the notification squad by 2 years. But I love your videos of this Im just watching alot of build series so I can get some Ideas for my 2004 crf250r. This is amazing I will not be converting to supermoto but love the powder coating and everything els
front brakes are a pain to fill with new fluid. took a while on my Harley to do it manually. On my crf450r I used my snap on vacuum brake bleeder and it took off some time but I still had to pump the lever and bleed them manually for a little to get a positive feel in the lever. Great looking bike dude!
Motonosity, I had the same issue with my front brakes, the master cylinder isnt strong enough to push the bubble down and out. You will need to get a vacuum bleeder kit from any auto store to bleed the front. This pulls the fluid/air down from the master cylinder rather than push it. Hope this helps bud! Goodluck with the build.
I applaud you for stuffing the fattest back tire in there you could and messing with all the clearances. Fortunately the 150 rear I have fit with no issues, although I'm sure with some ambition I could wedge a 160 in there.
I had a similar problem with the brakes I installed on my bike.. I had to start right at the brake reservoir where the fluid first goes into the line, bleed it there to get the air bubbles out and then go down to the bottom bleeder.. It took a little while but it eventually did end up working
Oh, and if you want to successfully get that bolt out of the stator, look for the ridgid 35585, it works awesome and will not spread the bolt out inside the threads since it grabs linear.
common with hydraulic brakes that they are incredibly slow to get any preassure in if they were empty, but keep pumpin and sometimes it even fixes itself if you let it sit for a while, the air in the brake line can flow up to the master cylinder!
I always back bleed brake and clutch (when applicable) line. Never had an issue doing it that way and doesn't take NEARLY as long. Bike is lookin good! I'd keep an eye on that front brake line though, it looks awful close to the tire. Can always route it around the outside of the fork if need be
yeah we routed it that way to begin with and it looked ok, but it was much better when we put it on the inside, doesn't look like clearance will be an issue tbh.
Yeah, what evo said! haha. Definitely will keep an eye on it. Just really didn't want it on the outside because I know it would've gotten snagged on something while doing stupid stuff :P
cool Supermoto!!!! can't wait to build mine on September 1, and make videos like the rest of the motovloggers out there. Yes I will be making a build series as well. 2005 CRF450x Supermoto coming soon to my channel!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Use a bottle with a hose to force brakefluid in through the bleednipple on the frontbrakes. You should cut the rear of the front fender too, it's way too long :P
Props for using a torque wrench. I bought that tekton wrench for my uncle since he doesn't use it much. I can tell you that the difference between a snap on/tekton/gearwrench is apparent. If you use a torque wrench often and you want to upgrade, look for a beam style wrench. You turn a dial on the side to set the torque load and that's all. And you don't have to unload the wrench. I have a snap on one i love as well as 3 gearwrench/KD clicker wrenches. Just thought i'd pass that on! Most people don't bother torquing things. I do on engine parts and wheels. Everything else i'm just as guilty of having torque elbow...
easiest way in my opinion to fill a completely new brake system is to back bleed using a syringe and piece of tubing. you inject fluid from the bottom at the caliper through the bleeder screw and push the fluid up to the master. if done right your brakes will be bled completely right away. if you want to keep trying with the manual bleed procedure make sure you get fluid moving through the master first (motomaster master cylinder has a bleed nipple unlike a lot of OEM master cylinders), then move down to the caliper and continue bleeding there.
Those wheels are sexy. Thanks for showing us this build. Makes me comfortable to know what wrenching on a bike is really like. Things go wrong, and that's normal. lol.
not sure if you did, but when you torqued the rear sprocket to the wheel you were holding the torque wrench up on the shaft. To apply a correct torque, make sure your hand is on the handle section of the torque wrench. Very nice bike, wish you would just send me the WR!
Another way you could fill the break lines is to use a syringe to push the fluid from the caliper up to the master cylinder. Worked great to bleed the breaks on my Polaris. You can find a tutorial about it here on the Tube.
Zip tie around the front brake master and let it sit overnight. Then the next morning remove the zip tie (do not touch the lever), and push the caliper towards the rim with your knee. It will force the air out at the top. Remember to check the fluid level before you push the lever.
Bike is coming together SO NIIICE
ZackGoes shut up zack
@@chrishansen8026 shut up kid.
Man she is BEAUTIFUL! I'm going to miss those dirt tires though 😔
ay fam nice vids
ps i love you.
i love your videos!!!
Sup babe
I love you all
OMG finish this! I'm coming down to hammer this together in 3 hours. I wanna go supermoto racing in Norman OK.
+Jake TheGardenSnake okay see you soon!
Love ur vids keep up the good work
Thanks
+snowcat You're not snowcat you fake bitch.
+AjackLee4 snowcats fake?! holy fuck I met him and he felt just like a real person. Even on the inside....
Just saw this video on the homepage and now i watched All youre episodes! love them, and the bike
+➤DutchMaarten➤ Quited that's awesome! Thanks dude!
its siick!
*your*
Looking forward to startup and testride :D!
Yeah! :D
o vad gör du här?
Any suggestions on street conversions for a klx110 with 2.5-14 in front and 3.0-12 in rear?
Anyone else think moto is a color scheme genius? This is gonna be the prettiest super moto on the streets👌

I am always waiting for these videos every Monday. Thank You Motonosity.
Should do a 30 min build series vid finishing the bike next time
YESSSSSSSSSSS
hell yeah
+Im Destructive yes
Krook He could finish it. But yes theres always something. But if all goes well a 30 min video of finishing everything is VERY possible
Not when you can do 25 parts and milk the views c'mon man gotta think business first :)

Wow! That supermoto looks awesome Brent!
it look absolutely beautiful as it is so when complete I think your going to be right about having the nicest supermoto ever seen
Hi guys. I'm living in Holland and follow this series. Great job so far...👍
Hallo mede Nederlander🇳🇱👍
the color on this rims is beautiful
Nice build series I'm sure it helps that you basically know every bolt on your motorcycle now.
I like the white and red color combo👌🏻
That bike can't be better! It's perfect.
A rare sighting of Evo Moto!
She's coming together nicely!
Love the S21's. As for your front brakes, gravity bleeding is the best way when dealing with empty lines and calipers.
Hey Brent, ur vids getting better and better..pure Entertainment ! pls make more built ups!
Sorry for my Bad english. Greets from Germany ✌️
+Rene B thank you!
looks good. quick tip, grease up your axle shafts before you put them in. It'll prevent corrosion and make them much easier to remove next time.
that front brake rotor is NICE
SO FRESH SO CLEAN
The wheels are sick dude
sweet vid Moto. bike is looking real nice with the wheels on.
The bike is looking really great man
I absolutely love this build series. My biggest issue is that I dont know what I'm going to do when its over...
Samee
tru lol
Brakes take a lot more fluid than you think. Just keep going. when I put new brakes on my Quad it took half a bottle of brake fluid to get full pressure. Hope this helps.
Can't wait to see this beast done! Another quality Vlog Motonosity, Keep it up
When you do new calipers and lines you should pump the fluid in from the bottom with a vacuum pump to avoid air bubbles. once full you cap the res, and can then use the pump to pressurize the line.
tbh red and black fairings would make this bike go from 7/10 to 11/10
to each their own. I like white on red :)
Yeah I really prefer two toned color schemes to the three ish color scheme on this one, regardless still looks good.
One of the best supermoto's i have ever seen. 👍🏻
DUDE! That looks so good with the supermoto rims!
this is a sick build dude. props
So I kind of missed the notification squad by 2 years. But I love your videos of this Im just watching alot of build series so I can get some Ideas for my 2004 crf250r. This is amazing I will not be converting to supermoto but love the powder coating and everything els
Nice video series Brent! I really enjoy watching!
Stunning bike man. that thing looks sooooo good!

That thing is looking mint dude
Thanks dude!

i dont want to wait tell next sunday for another build video! love the build!
hey man! I found you through this supermoto build! By far one of my favorite build series to watch on youtube! Great videos man!
+Rockin Moto awesome bro! Thanks!
np!
I applaud you for stuffing the fattest back tire in there you could and messing with all the clearances. Fortunately the 150 rear I have fit with no issues, although I'm sure with some ambition I could wedge a 160 in there.
Im running a 180 on mine. It fits, kinda.
LazyWaffleman The crap kinda bike do you have!? Certainly not a supermoto... I don't think.
a friend of mine uses 180 tires on his ktm. it's always a huge pain in the ass to get the wheel in place
Nick Childs
Its an old wr400, it does fit. Not really well though.
Okay the wheels look awesome
Cut the back of the fender looks funky
i love the series, and im thinking about doing it myself, now that i see how good yours turned out ! keep it up bro
That thing looks awesome.
dude that looks so badass
that thing is sick looking i think the white needs alittle bit of red just something to break up all that white but still bad ass
I had a similar problem with the brakes I installed on my bike.. I had to start right at the brake reservoir where the fluid first goes into the line, bleed it there to get the air bubbles out and then go down to the bottom bleeder.. It took a little while but it eventually did end up working

I was so excited to see this on my lunch break. looks great man!
waited for this all day
Same..lol
Sorry!
it's ok
same here haha
+Motonosity for the brakes try to pump the handle then it should give you pressure
Nice color combo!
common with hydraulic brakes that they are incredibly slow to get any preassure in if they were empty, but keep pumpin and sometimes it even fixes itself if you let it sit for a while, the air in the brake line can flow up to the master cylinder!
One of the prettiest steeds in all the land.
Can't wait for this beauty to be on the streets. 😝😝 love this build series. Sweet bike. Peace✌🏼️
i Always look forward to the build series videos on Sundays.
Gets prettier every episode, need to fly to the US to see it some day ahahha. Nice work Brent, keep it up.

evo moto Right on!
Yeah, what evo said! haha. Definitely will keep an eye on it. Just really didn't want it on the outside because I know it would've gotten snagged on something while doing stupid stuff :P
Motonosity "Instructions unclear, got dick caught in brake line"
startin to look damn good man. I like the build. wish it were legal to do this here
in love with those wheels!!
Looking great!!
Bleed up through the caliper to the Rez , that's what we do on down hill mountain bikes and gets all the bubbles out !
Looks awesome man, can't wait till its done!
cool Supermoto!!!! can't wait to build mine on September 1, and make videos like the rest of the motovloggers out there. Yes I will be making a build series as well. 2005 CRF450x Supermoto coming soon to my channel!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Use a bottle with a hose to force brakefluid in through the bleednipple on the frontbrakes.
You should cut the rear of the front fender too, it's way too long :P
its all about them details!!
God damn, son, that bike is looking sharp!
Hey thanks for a great vid 🤙
Dam bike looks great so far cant wait til its finished Ive never been a fan of white fairings but the color combination you picked out is on point
I'm not a big fan of the supermoto front fenders but the bikes still badass man!
Looks so dope

Awesome vid mate!
Video is dope and so informative! Keep it coming man
i was joking about what i said earlier this bike is LIT
You got some good taste my friend

I hope one day I can have a build like this.
The freaking brake system alone is 1K, you are one lucky SOB for getting this bike build sponsored.
Low key going to buy this from him.
I just needed to hear Honda and I subscribed
that looks so cool motonosity
that bike is looking so clean you aren't going to want to get it dirty
I think it would look soooo mutch better if it had a supermoto light instead of a lightbar and btw it looks sick
You should do a close up of how tight the rear wheel is. She's lookin good!
Getting there, and DANG it is so pretty!
Those wheels are sexy. Thanks for showing us this build. Makes me comfortable to know what wrenching on a bike is really like. Things go wrong, and that's normal. lol.
i have been waiting for that part so bad !
not sure if you did, but when you torqued the rear sprocket to the wheel you were holding the torque wrench up on the shaft. To apply a correct torque, make sure your hand is on the handle section of the torque wrench. Very nice bike, wish you would just send me the WR!
That's an amazing looking bike!!!!
Looking sweet !
ooo it's looking real nice.
looks badass!
Pretty sick bike
