Re: Better fluid then Motul RBF 600?
So because youve never had brake fade, my fading must be just my imagination
I am cooking the RBF with the dual quad setup, never had a problem with it on any other setup Ive ever had...So I just want to try some different fluid as Ive been using strictly RBF for a couple years now...

Re: Better fluid then Motul RBF 600?
So I figured out my HB fade problem, and it wasnt the fluid. I noticed slight brake fluid spatter on my rim, took a closer look and the line from my HB to the 4 piston caliper was leaking slightly. The line that came with the FTI dual caliper bracket was leaking right were the fitting is pressed onto the line...It was a very small leak, so I guess over night it would let a little air in, but when I rode it I would pump it out as Im riding and it would get harder again....
Anyways I got some Motul RBF 660 anyways, swapped out the line for one I made myself..Bled it and now my **** is rock hard all the time....Not sure if I needed the expensive fluid or not but it cant hurt anything but my pocket...It was $36 Canadian for 1 bottle
Check your lines, I never really trusted press on fittings that can be rotated....And this line was leaking brand new right out of the box from FTI...But thats just my luck, I order 4 kits and I choose to install the one with a leaky line on my bike...All the other 3 were fine..
