pete84 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi, Trying to remove the swingarm, after disconnecting the brake line from the caliper realised it won't go through the cavity of the arm? Someone tell me what i'm doing wrong please. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony27 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 The brake line is not easily removed from inside the swingarm, when I remove my swingarm for regreasing I take the whole brake system off the bike at the same time to avoid needing to disconnect the lines & go through the grief of trying to bleed the rear caliper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony27 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Might be easier just to buy a new line & fit it to the new arm before fitting to the bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
