574 brakes

TimWafer · Apr 26, 2011

I have to bleed the foot brakes on my 574 every few days, especially if I don’t use it for a few days. If I use it every day it seems to last longer. I know there has been talk about this before but what is the most likely cause or how do I diagnose the problem? Just tired of bleeding them all the time.

Your O-rings in the brake calipures are leaking. They are a pain in the a$$ to change because you have to pull the rear tire, hub, axle stub, and axle housing to get to the brake. Once appart it is an easy fix. Just did the ones on my 885. Same problem as described.

ugh!
Sounds like too much to tackle until things slow down a bit. Guess i just keep bleeding them for the time being then. Was hoping for a quick fix!
