I was about a day away from paying a mobile motorcycle mechanic to come by and change my brakes before watching this video. Just saved me $50, and it only took me about 15 minutes.
you forgot to mention the squeel can also be caused by crooked pads .. problem occurs when you have nasty dirty sliding pins like it LOOKS like you have here :D, should prob clean those ;) or perhaps they wherent as dirty as they look, also bad idea to grab the mid like u did here :) u can put a grove in it and it wont slide propper .. and ofc squeeling brakes again :) . ty for the video dude helped alot of people i think :)
Wow. This is amazing. I was about to try to take the entire caliper off (recommendation from another video I watched) glad I found this. I do have a question, does your rear rotor have some play in it, ive done some reading and found that it is a floating rotor, but it still makes me a little nervous.
What year Intruder is that? I have a '04 1500 Intruder LC and I think my back caliper has two pistons, so I'm wondering if I can do my brakes the same way 🤔
Great video. Straight to the point, no BS. Awsome job. Thank you.
Excellent video👍
Wow!! I'm thankful I kept looking for the best way to change my Intruder pads. Your video is money!!!
Thanks. I looked beforehand to help myself change the brakes. Couldn't find anything worthwhile, so I made up my own posting of how to do it.
Literally saves you a lot of money!!! Great video, I couldn't find how to do it till I found this!! So helpful. Thanks.
Thanks 👍 This is proper instructions and well presented. Now I am motivated to try and change my brake pads, myself. 😅
You are welcome! Glad it helped.
Nice video! I now have the confidence to do this myself on my intruder!
Nice Video. Nice Music. Thank you 🤜🤛

Great Video. Thanks. Makes the job easy for me.
Thank you for the excellent video and commentary sir! Getting ready to do this on my LC
Hell yeah man this was a very good video. Way to take pride in the content you make this made Changing my breaks easy peasy
Thank you so much for sharing. I Appreciate so much straight to the point!!! Well Done, Man!
Well, thanks,doing mine tomorrow, and that is for sure the easiest way...
Thanks for your tips too
I've got the 1998 VL1500 intruder! These bikes are sick!
Great help 👍😎
This was super helpful as I am about to do my brakes and was dreading all the bolts that I was seeing. You really saved the day for me. Thanks
Glad it helped. It seemed a clear video with good lighting was in need.
Great for the rear. The front seems more involved because of the fender & two screws holding on the pad cover.
Thx :-)!! This is so easy.
Thanks, buddy!
Thank you!!!
Thanks man, that helped me alot!
You are welcome. Glad to know it helped.

Glad the video helped. I don't think the rotor should have play in it but you might want to get a professional opinion.
Great video! Does the same principle apply for the front brakes? I have a 02 intruder and the front brakes squeak. Thanks for the help!
I believe so, but not sure because it is a few years newer.
Awesome
Thanks too you, it was easy money
Glad it helped.
Would the fresh engine oil suffice as a 'grease' on the back side of the pad?
I'm sure any kind of lubricant would work to stop the squeal. Happy trails this summer!
Wow yours looks nothing like mine

It's a 1999. I'm sure once you get in there you'll find similarities. Good luck. It's a lot easier when you know how.
