Hey man thanks so much for making this video, changed out my front pads using your video for reference. Hoping you keep making more DIY videos and that I keep learning to do more stuff like this. It's very satisfying to do!
Hello brother nice video on how to check the brake pads. As I feel the rare brakes are not biting like the front my bike is not stopping with rare, do you recommend for upgrading to sintered brake pads for the rare? If so which brand or from Triumph Service? I am also looking to install front fork sliders, can you recommend a good one. Thank you. Keep making nice informative videos on SPEED400 brother. 😊
@@sarasdcruzdb9 Hi Saras, thanks for watching the video and your support. I mentioned i dont know much about brake pads, i dont think triumph will be selling Rear Sintered one. You can definetly go for after market ones.

For second service now im going for 300 v2 as per your suggestion and addition to that im thinking to use engine flush oil by motul as well as motul petrol tank cleaner, so can i go for it ?? Does it helps ?
@@ansarronnie9964 thanks for wathcing the previous videos as well. And happy to see you are switching to 300v2.

@@arijitbhadra1914 correction, i drained 300v2 after 6000 kms but it was still in better condition to go 2k kms More. Now the ride quality have great impact on engine oils performance and life too. 300v2 is a racing engine oil but it doesnt mean it has short drain period.

I'll steer clear of flushing engine (especially if it is under 50k kms). Instead change the oil early (like in 5k kms)
Why is engine light in your bike ?
And what is underneath that light what does it denotes?

motul 7100 or 300v2 or Castrol power one ultimate - among these three which engine oil should I use for overall better performance?
All are good but 300v2 is technically better but it's for racing purpose so the drain interval in not long as compared to other 2.
