HOW TO SERVICE SPONGY, LOOSE DISC BRAKE | BLEEDING DISC BRAKES | TVS APACHE RTR 200 BRAKE BLEEDING

- Опубликовано: 15 фев 2018
- Hello everyone, In this video we will discuss the solution for spongy, loose disc brakes. Lack of feedback due to air in the system can be solved by bleeding the braking system.
This process is similar for almost every motorcycle with disc brakes. So you can apply this for loose, spongy brakes on Bajaj, KTM, Suzuki, Honda motorcycles.

I don't understand how does a channel like this have so poor amount of subscribers.
This channel deserves millions of subscribers.
Thank you so much. Love and support from enthusiasts like you means a lot to me ❤

This is the first video I watched on your channed, didn't even check the other videos but subscribed and thumbs up, good work should always be appreciated.
Thanks a lot for appreciating the efforts. Subscription means a big motivation to make more such content 😊
Such an underrated channel
Amazing video 10/10 helpful exept I don't use the bikes that use fuel
Im new to this channel..i like your content..You got a new sub !😅👍
Really great information and professional content.
Excellent demonstration and video bro 👍 the professionalism you show is appreciable ! Not even pro mechanics say about the brake fluid being corrosive and I've seen so many bikes with a corroded oil reservoir and brake lever just because of oil spillage..
Thanks a lot Monish for the beautiful words! Its always a joy to read comments like this from you, it's a feeling of satisfaction after all the hard work that goes on to making these videos.
You're welcome The Sportztourer ! We the subscribers would love to see such good content RUclips channels grow up really well 😊

Thanks a lot Abhishek Nanda for making me feel awesome 😊 glad that you like the content.
Thank you so much for this video. This solved my problem on RTR 150.
Glad to know that the video helped.
Happy to have an OG Apache rider on the channel.
I will definitely try it, need videos like this for DIY, No need to spend on service center then.
That great Praful Meena 👍 just be careful after you are done (check the braking atleast for 2-3 times) , I really don't want anyone to get injured.
All the best 👍
I spent 150 at service center just to get this fixed
That was one very informative video. Everytime i see your videos i just wished i had the Apache. I dont know if u remember or not, in one of ur long touring videos i said ur videos make my confidence more strong of buying Apache. Unfortunately I didnt get it, waited for 1.5 months for the matte white model but they said productio isnt there as of now for matte white. So after waiting for long i opted out and bought Fazer25 instead. Fazer25 is also a great bike but it cost me more. Anyways.... Great video once again.. Kudos to you!!! 😊😊
Hi Pratik,
Of course I remember the conversation. Well this video is applicable for your Fazer 25 as well.
Heartily Congratulations on getting the Fazer 25! I love that torque filled engine & that instant acceleration 😊
The Sportztourer Thank You Sportztourer..... Love your videos waiting for more... 😊
wow....very well explained !!
Enrolled in the University of The sportzTourer :)

Super bro please make regular videos atleast one video in a week 😀❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for showing so much interest 😊
As you can see my focus is on quality content (don't know how much I am successful in it) but I do feel the need to be more frequent as comments/appreciation from riders like you is addictive!
The Sportztourer don't worry bro your clarity of the content is next level as a pro and I personally learn much more things about the technical specs of my bike and now I own RTR 200 your videos made me feel like i can handle any situation of my bike really love your channel and you always a lovely subscriber waiting for much and more videos

Didn't tried yet but Good professional way to make video.
Thanks a lot for appreciating the efforts 😊
Thankyou, very helpful 👍
Bro is this for rear brake too?? Your explanation is superb keep going and show us more life saving hackk
Hi Dude, Thanks for this detailed video. I followed this for my rear brake system in my RTR 200 ABS version and brake started leaking somewhere near control unit beneath the seat. What could be reason for that? Is that because, I once started the bike just to check the brake performance while doing this process?
Awesome explanation
Wonderful and clean presentation.
Thanks a lot for the appreciation 😊
Thanks for your suggestion
Wow it works Broo very happy thank you, love you very much ❤❤❤
Good job sir👍👍👍👍
Really appreciate your work. I just pressed subscribe button n like
Thanks a lot! Subscription is a big motivation to make more such videos 😊
Best channel for rtr 200
Thank you so much Amar 😊 I am glad that you liked the channel 👍
Simply superb
Thanks a lot Bharat Patel 😊
I know street smart but thanks to you. Now I know a bike Smart🙂
Ha ha ha.. you surely know how to play with words!
Thanks a lot Vimal 😊
Thats is real nice video ......
Thanks Nitesh 😊 Do check out the channel you will find a lot of similar stuff.
The dot 4 grade needs to be used for topping up the rear brake reservoir too? I own a 200 4v..
bhai matlab khatrnak kaam kare ho. mast.
Thank you so much!!
Please make a video for ABS systems also. Did some DIY with the ABS system, now the front brake doesn't get tight. ASC says it will get tight with time, but have already ridden 200kms after that. There seems to be no air in the system as when bled only liquid comes out, there are no air bubbles. And I've done the bleeding part almost 7-8 times already but no progress.
Once again a great rendering towards the video presentation. keep it up Sir.
And i have an Apache 160 , i feel the same loose disc brakes during recent times, but that is over my rear side. Any solutions for rear disc loose brakes .
Thank you :)
Hi Haran Kumar,
The process is same for the rear disc brakes, you just have to pump the rear brake pedal instead of front brake lever.
The Sportztourer thank you :)
Awesome.....This video is very helpful🙏🙏🙏👍
Thanks for the awesome comment Dhananjay 😊
Ur welcome😊
Very helpful video great one. Go a head brother.....
Thanks a lot Swarup for the motivating comment 👍 Hope you are enjoying your white beast.
The Sportztourer Thank u bhai apka comments mujhe bhi motivation deta hai apko main follow kar raha hnu , I wish app or bhi age badh te ra hain may God help u
Good job sir
Small question - on ABS brake setup, does the pumping needed while braking to improve the power coz single pressing hard is not effective. One more thing when u pull the lever, it stops at a point and if u pull it full further with force then the lever goes back a bit. Is this normal?
Superb video as always....👍👍👍
But my question is if I mistakely spill brake oil on bike body parts then after that what should I do...??
Thanks Aniket 😊
If you spill then immediately wipe it of with a absorbant cloth/tissue don't rub it while removing it.
Later clean the surface with water or IPA.
The Sportztourer thanks....👍
This should be much needed precaution in that case
Can u make a similar video for rear disc brake also
You are too good brother ❤
Thank you so much for the kind words, happy to have you on the channel 😊
Awesome keep it up
Thanks Dhiren Patel 😊
When changing new disk pad and break oil is it take some days to work full efficiency
AOG should promote this channel.
Great presentation brother..Simple and informative as always.
i have a question.. i own 2017 apache 160, and as you are aware of the vibration issues like every other apaches, i have managed to reduce the vibs to a great extent by constant visiting at the tvs authorised service centers.. now vibs hit the bike at around 60-65 km/hr(previously around 50km/hr).. I feel that this vibration can further be reduce to some more extent if i change the brand of engine oil. presently i have been using the fully synthetic oil supplied by tvs.. I had a conversation with the service centre guy & i asked him if i can change tvs FS oil with Motul 7100, to which he said dont do it now as your bike is under warranty and if anything goes wrong in bike be it anywhere, during inspection TVS may reject your claim by pointing out about non using this recommended engine oil.
The mechanic is a nice guy and he has a good knowledge about the work but you tell me if he is right.. Cant i switch oil brand during warranty?
The service center guy is right as TVS can have their say on engine oil in case of warranty & there are many cases with other manufacturers as well regarding engine oil.
TVS has mentioned about the recommended engine oil in the owner's manual. Same applies to any electrical accessory you install on your motorcycle. Warranty also depends upon your service center as they are one who deals with most of the cases.
The Sportztourer Thank you so much. You took out time and replied. Now that you have confirmed it, i am sure about the engine oil part. Your reply really made me glad . I wish i could meet you sometime.. take care brother
awesome video brother. Same works for rtr160 or any bike with disc brakes ryt
Yes its the same for RTR 160 👍
Thanks for the awesome comment 😊
Pls make video on how to adjust chain setting n tyre adjustment in rtr 200
Bro asbestos vs non asbestos brake shoes, which one supports better braking ?
Dude your videos are very informative
But meanwhile the brake oil you used is dot 4 and the previous oil was dot 3 you shouldn't mix them both as they are completely different in their properties dot 4 is the best one as it has high heat resistant properties in it
So make sure that you get it changed by flushing the whole oil and refilling it with dot 4 one
Hi,
Yes you are right about mixing brake oils when it comes to DOT 5, otherwise you can always mix DOT 3 with higher standard DOT 4 as DOT 3, 4 & 5.1 all are glycol base fluids which are totally soluble & retains their properties of non compressibility & heat resistance when mixed. However DOT 5 silicon based brake fluid is non compatible with these brake oil.
I agree with your point of not mixing them as it beats the purpose of using superior brake oil it is similar to mixing mineral engine oil in fully synthetic engine oil.
Thanks a lot for the input Jaya Surya as it will be helpful to many riders visiting the comment section with doubt 👍
Nice, i think my rtr front disc has some air, brake is getting little jammed, its annoying....
Can it happen to rear disc brake too?
Please make a video for rear disc brake also
Nice. . 👌👌
Thanks Arjun 😊
And how about rear disc brake?
My apache rtr 4v's rear disc brake isnt working as it was working when the bike was new...and its been just 3 months since i purchased the bike...how do i solve it? I feel the rear brakes and not at all powerful enough anymore
Same process is also for rear disc brake?
Super review
Thanks Kowhik 😊
What to do when scratches is disc plate?
It may be repaired or needed to replace
bro, is the procedure the same for abs variant?
Good
Bro can i use dot 5.1 break oil instead of Dot 4 ? & How can i flush break caliiper?
I tried this method in my old bike and initially it worked later when i changed the caliper o rigns and done this method it is taking me forever to fix this. Already spent 100ml of brake fluid for this.
I felt my brake feedback come when i hardly press lever should i do it ??? Or its normal
Please do for rear disc brake also bro... Please!
Bro I have small question..
Does it fits 200 4v back disc to 160 4v
I want to change back disc of 160 4v
you missed the part where you have to close the bleeding valve guys please do that😂😂
Any way to disable cbs in hornet ? Front brake is not progressive and lever is bit hard
Bhai how much brake fluid is required to bleed both front and rear and completely swap brake fluid for RTR 200?
Is this method same for rear brakes of apache ?
Hi i have interceptor 650 front disk rotor has play more than it requires and it makes lot more noise when i go through potholes. Is it possible to repair this issue or need to replace? And how to repair please advise - frpm Mumbai
Please make 1 video on poor braking on Apache.
for which purpose i should do it in my bike?
Heyyy!! Excellent one!! Can I perform the same for my rear ABS brakes on Dominar 400??
Thanks a lot Vivek!
Yes, the process remains the same for ABS equipped motorcycles (including the rear brakes).
@@thesportztourer cheers . Thnx mate
Can spongy break also be caused by new spring pads?
Hows waxpool brake fluid?
Wow .doing a great job .and one problem while driving my rtr 160 i am hearing a squeak sound from the front as the mechanic had removed the dust in the disc pad using blower but stil the sound is coming please tell me what to do
Hi Akshay Deepak, blowing air will just remove brake pad dust & nothing else.
You can try to pressure wash the disc & caliper. Best is brake cleaner, I have one do you want a video on that?
The Sportztourer That would be great as my RTR 200 front brakes also squeak.
Ok 👍 it will be done soon 😊
Thanks man! Your videos are excellent, to the point and a real help to us motorcycle lovers out there, especially ones having an RTR. Keep up the good work :D
The Sportztourer bro i have already given to the mechanic and he cleaned .still now that squeak sound is coming im really fed up with my bike 😑
Any news on whether we can add the abs setup of new RTR 200 abs version on older RTR 200s?
Hi Aditya,
Its a very expensive process plus TVS won't be liable for any warranty on the motorcycle.
I have asked the service center and there are no recent plans from TVS to retro fit the ABS in non ABS models (no training provided to them).
very nice,
but you have used dot 4 on the reservoir instead of dot 3. since the bleeding done was incomplete.
You need to bleed till you see the dot 4 fluid coming out.
Hi Shreyas,
You are right if we are considering DOT 5 brake fluid, otherwise you can always mix DOT 3 with higher standard DOT 4 as DOT 3, 4 & 5.1 all are glycol base fluids which are totally soluble & retain their properties of non compressibility & heat resistance when mixed. However DOT 5 silicon based brake fluid is non compatible with these brake oils.
Again I would agree with you on totally flushing out the old brake oil as brake oils have there wet & dry boiling point which can reduce the performance of new brake oil. My brake oil was almost new & my problem was different (air in the system) so I decided to top up, which is perfectly fine.
I will try to come up with video on completely flushing & maintainance of the calipers very soon. Thanks for your input as it will help many riders reading the comment section 👍
if the fluid in the reservoir is new then its not a problem i guess..
All the best mate !
can the oil in cup be reused ?
I have an apache rtr 200 , Oct 2016 model, done just 4300 km. I am not getting enough feedback from my front disc and the bite is totally vanished. Should I consider changing the disc pads. If yes then should I go for stock or after market ones.
Hi Malay,
4300km is a bit early for the brake pads to wear out.
Check out this video where I have shown how to inspect the brake pads for wear: ruclips.net/video/lBrvgRH-6LA/видео.html
Bro... thank you so much. I tried to change disk pad myself. But it was not working properly. But after ur review. I tried that. It’s working awesome. Thank you so much. 😂😂
what is the size of the flexible pipe?
Should we go for this DIY maintenance for the ABS brake systems?
Hi Arunava,
The bleeding process remains the same for ABS equipped motorcycles (might take some more time).
@@thesportztourer ok sir, now I understand, the brake line will go through the ABS unit.. so it will take a little long time, thanks for the info...👍
can we install 2004v rear disc on 1604v
I opened my front brake fuild box just to check the brake fluid and when I closed it I've noticed a tiny bubble inside through the measure hole on the box. Is that tiny bubble a problem? (Apache 160 4v)
There's no issue with brake performance though.
That should be fine 👍
Ut it was interesting
Thanks! Happy to know that you liked it 😊
my bike skids alot while soft and hard braking for rears.. please help me how to resolve this issue..
bike ridden 10k km.. i m facing this issue since i bought the bike. service center guys are just inexperienced to handle my issue
Aur bhaiya yee v batey ki front break loose kaise hoga
