From oil and spark plug changes to carb cleaning to petcock replacement to brakes to ALL things VTX, ROCCO IS THE MAN. Can’t even speak to how much time/money his videos have saved me and how much he’s helped keep me keep riding. Bought a VTX 1300R used and in need of some TLC, couldn’t have brought it back to life without his help. Thanks Rocco

Hi Rocco. Thanks for the video. One thing I decided to do is put a thin layer of brake grease on the pin. I just figured it would help to facilitate removing it and maybe protect it a bit from the elements. But really thin.
Happy to help. Surely it can't hurt it can only help. Thank you for watching and your support Jeff. Ride safe and have a great day.
Thanks Rocco! Took me 3 min on my 05 R

Hi Rocco, do you have any video for show where the retainer clip on 2005 VTX 1300s caliper go? Also if you can show or direct me to where the correct placement of the anti rattle clips on the front caliper, thanks your videos are great. Both of those parts mentioned came out in the process of a tire change and brake pad replacement front and rear.
Happy to Help, if you can send me a cell number. It's easier than you think those clips.. Thank you for watching and your sub Glen. Ride safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco Hi Rocco, Thanks for responding as soon as you have. I didn’t see your reply until this morning, my name is Glen , my # is 646-319-4706. In the meantime I’ll take pic of clamp/part of the rear caliper,I have the rear wheel off just had tires replaced , front and rear. I’ll wait until I hear from you until I move forward. Thanks so much.

Hi Rocco. Jeff Cranston here from TX with the 04 Honda VTX 1300c. We talked years ago about my carburetor work and such and you were extremely helpful. It's been running great for many years. I'm having and issue with starting this year and suddenly, I have 99% no rear brakes, yet the pads look ok and I changed them around 5 years ago. The pads look like they are almost or are touching the disc. I assume there should be some pad gap and hitting the foot pedal makes it pinch. I pushed the foot pedal with a deck broom so I could look at the pads/brakes and I don't see any movement at all. The other issue is, with newer battery, checked cable tightness, cleaned switches near throttle, I am getting intermittent starting issues. Today, I went to start it and it started right up. Then I drove about 15 miles and stopped for gas. When I tried to start, I just got the "ug" sound for a second and then nothing. Took about 6 pushes and then it turned over fully and started.
Be very careful the start switch is all dirty. There will be a little ball bearing in that switch so when you take it apart, be conscious that it will fall to the floor and you will lose it, but you need to clean that switch up with some electrical cleaner first I will try to just get the electrical cleaner and spray the switch and see if that works. Let us know how that works out as for your Brake Pads put new pads in. Ride safe and have a great day. Like I said, taking me to the park could be a little tricky with that little ball bearing in the 1300s bad design you lose that ball you're done. Hope this helps let us know.
@@TwoWheelRocco I mentioned that I did clean the switches (as I have in the past). No issues doing that. I use a high grit sandpaper piece to gentlely make a few passes until it is clean fully. And I add a little conductive anti oxidant thinly on the surface. Done this kind of thing for many years. So I think it's fair to say it's not the switch or the battery connections. The voltage levels measured at both off and idle seem to be where they should be. The battery fairly new and kept trickle charged in the winter. The last similar battery I had lasted about 8 years. So now I'm thinking I need to analyze the starter itself with a bypass heavy duty jumper to exclude it vs the starter relay. I also plan to take it to Autozone where they can put their battery tester on it to verify it's health, as an exclusion.
@@TwoWheelRocco Anything about my rear brake issue?
Update: I used a heavy duty jumper across starter relay contact (with key on) and the bike started right up 3 times. Which to me means more likely the relay is issue.
I will be removing the brake caliper when it's a cooler day, and seeng if there is any novement removed. If not, I will inspect the master cylinder and the caliper pivot areas
Thank you man... I subscribe
Happy to help. Any questions just ask. Just make sure you have the pistons and the caliper 100% collapsed for your new brake pads to fit.Thank you for watching and all your support. Ride safe and have a great day.
Do all flavors of the VTX C, R, and T have disc brakes in the rear? I've just bought a VTX1300T from a friend of mine and she's going to keep the bike in here garage for me until riding season starts up again, so I can't as easily go take a look for myself at the moment.
Good luck with your new ride, VTX. is our great bike. Any questions just ask. Thank You for your sub Doug.. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Gday Rocco, this question is a little off subject but I value your opinion, I’m thinking of getting a stage 2 kit for my 2015 road king 103, will it shorten the life of the motor due to increased temperatures, and would you recommend it, I’m after a bit more torque, cheers 👍
I'm a big OEM guy I wiould go for the slip ons and save yourself a lot of headache and money. let us know what you do but myself I have slip ons on my King. Keep it nice and quiet but a little sound. Thank you for your Sub Dags. Let us know how it works out. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Two Wheel Rocco thanks Rocco as usual great advice
I lived in Suffolk County, Long Island New York. Sounds like you're from there, lol.
I use to race on 231, let's not forget about seafood oyster Bay Expressway lots of fun. and Wantage Parkway when I was a kid in the 70s and 80s . I moved to Florida 25 years ago. Best thing I have a did. Haven't had a ticket since.. Thank you for watching in your sub Rob. Any questions just ask. Ride safe and have a great day.
Hey Two Wheel Rocco, I love your videos. Quick question. Anti Seize grease isn't needed for the top pin? (The one you cleaned with the steel wool)
Happy to help. I would avoid putting that anti grease on it. I used to, I noticed it starts to accumulate dirt. Thank you for watching and all your support BBG. Ride safe and have a great day. Any questions just ask.

thank you for videos very nice

Great source of info Rocco, thank you! In reference to a comment made earlier, do you recommend removing the caliper in order to use steel wool on the pistons, or is a blast of compressed air and a good squirt of brake cleaner sufficient to clean the pistons without removing the caliper? Thanks!
That would be your choice but first I always try just to blast the air a little brake cleaner my wire brush and put it all back together. Thank you for watching and your sub randtorman. Ride safe and have a great day.
Ok great video BUT when replacing ANY break pads on your bike. Clean the pistons with steel wool before you compress them. If you do not clean them you run the risk of pushing the build up that is on the piston past the rubber boot and that build up can and will tear the boot. That tear will lead to a break fluid leak. NOBODY wants a break fluid leak.
Great point... Thank you for your Sub G Melinn. Ride Safe and have a great day.
Appreciate the video yet would have appreciated even more if you would have included what to do if the two clips, one above the pads and the one behind the pads falls out and how to put them back in, which is a very real issue
Sorry about that. I hope all worked out. Take your time and those clips are kind of obvious but you're gonna have to remove the caliper. Thank you for watching. I wish I would've had the foresight to get into that. Ride safe and have a great day.
I don't own a motorcycle lift yet. Is it ok to change the pads without lifting the bike? Are there otherw ways to test the brakes to ensure they're working?
Happy to help I will send a video on how you could use an auto jack to lift your bike rear wheel off the ground. Thank you for watching and all your support John. Ride safe and have a great day. Take a Look. .ruclips.net/video/oPZn2DaxF_0/видео.htmlsi=ewiCzes15aQKj30h. Hope this helps, Let us know.
ROCCO , even though i had compressed my rear piston all the way in , it seemed not enough room for new pads and all the metal shields on brake pads , i had to skip one of the thin white shields to get it back together , do you see a problem with that ?
Happy to help. That's is normal for some aftermarket pads. The shielding is anti-vibration, no big deal but yes that white piece add some thickness. You are fine. Thank you for watching and your sub.Mat. Ride safe and have a great day.
Hey brother,, was the rotor not needing to be surfaced,, or is it ok to put the new brakes on a rotor that is that cut up,,, asking for a friend,, thanks,, any help is appreciated
Happy to help. You can buy a new one on eBay for relatively cheap You could put the pads on. And see how she rides. No big deal, pads are cheap. Thank you for watching it all your support. Tim. Ride safe and have a great day.
If you open up the air on the 1300 i put a open filter cobra on mine what is the best jet to run the 195 200 or 210?
Happy to help. Without changing the pipe, I wouldn't change the main jet or the idle jet. Thank you for watching and all your support dirt face. Ride safe and have a great day. Let us know how it works out. Sorry, I couldn't be more help. Something like that you got a test and tune. Which is hard with the VTX carburetor in the middle.
O3 Honda VTX 1300 Got a question for you if you could help I replaced my brakes all the way around when I replace the tires and now the rear disc is getting really hot way too hot to touch is that normal or did I do something wrong I did have to take the whole caliper off any advice would be helpful
Happy to help. Can you spin the rear wheel? If you hit your rear brake pedal it stops when you release the pedal does the rear wheel move forward. Yes, they do get hot to the touch of your hand quickly, so you're probably all right. How many miles since you changed your tires and brakes? If those brakes were not installed properly your rotor would be turning blue and you would smell it that's how hot it would get. If in doubt, take it apart and reinstall and inspect that's what I would do if in question. Thank you for watching and your sub Tucker Dave.. Let us know how this works out. Ride safe have a great day.
Hello Rocco hope you’re doing good, in a VTX 1300 , the lower flange bolt of the rear caliper broke, the same bolt you removed when the outer brake pad was stuck , i couldn’t find the exact same bolt but i found a bolt with the same thread size and same length but all the bolt is threaded not like the original one half threaded and half smoothed , so my question could I install it or it will not be right to install it knowing that i ordered the oem bolt but i takes about month to be delivered to Egypt, thank you in advance
Happy to help. I would put that bolt in and see how the rear wheel functions when you use your real brake pedal. Month is a long time to wait. Thank you for watching and your sub Mohammed. Ride safe and have a great day. Let us know how it works out.
@@TwoWheelRocco thanks a lot Rocco i will try it and see how it will go ✌🏼✌🏼
@@mohamedeldeeb7926 My pleasure. Let us know how it works out. Ride safe and have a great day.
Can you show me how the back brake pads are to look after they are back in please
Happy to help, send a picture of what you have to Erocco3964@gmail.com and then I'll send you back of a 05 VTX that I have. I believe if you watch this video pretty well explains this process. Let's do a workshop.
Does my Honda vtx r wheels have to be jacked up to put on brake pads
Happy to help. No I believe you could do it without the rear wheel being off the ground. Thank you for watching and all your support michael. Ride safe and have a great day.
I have a 2006 Honda Shadow with a rear drum brake that squeaks a lot brakes are still good any ideas?
Clean pads and reinstall is all you can do. ride and it will fade away.
With some air I'm just going to bl...pssssss!! Pssssssss. Lol my ears are dead
Sorry about that. Just trying to help. Thank you for watching and all your support beastMrofficial. Ride safe and have a great day.
Dealership wanted $100 to do this WHILE CHANGING THE TIRE AND IT WAS OFF THE BIKE
Happy to help. And did that hundred thousand include the pads? That's why we should work out our own bikes. Thank you for watching and your support Devon, Ride safe and have a great day VTXs are great motorcycles.
Where did you jack up the bike?
Happy to help. I'll send a video that will show you how to use an auto jack to jack these bikes up. Thank you for watching and your sub Shawn. Ride safe and have a great day. ruclips.net/video/oPZn2DaxF_0/видео.html. Let us know how this works out.
No need for a torque wrench?
Happy to Help, I don't find it necessary for the caliper bolts just don't wrench things down. Take note of when you loosen. there not that tight. Hope that helps . Thank you for watching and your Sub Jamie. Ride Safe and have a Great Day.
