Brake fluid choice

[Ratchet]

Yeah, As I say I have stripped the whole bike and am rebuilding and Customising. So I will put the DOT5 in. As I didn't realise it would take silicone Brake fluid in such an old model bike!

All good then -- must've missed that bit ... I've got DOT5 in all of my bikes -2 Evos and 2 Shovels. The only down side that I have found is that in the event of a roadside brake related emergency DOT5 isn't always easy to get hold of. I always carry a small bottle of it on the bike if I'm wandering far from home.
