didn't they say it should be part of the regular maintenance plan....if thats the case, if you have a pre-paid maintenance plan, i wonder if it would be covered or maybe done already.
Quoted from the letter...... "For this reason, Harley-Davidson, like most other motorcycle manufacturers has always included a two year brake fluid replacement cycle in the maintenance schedule for vehicles using DOT 4 brake fluid".

 

So when was the last time you changed brake fluid in you vehicle? Never right?
people get so Anil over their bikes it's down right rediciouls.

 

Just did it and yes you need to get the ABS motor pumping to get all the fluid cycled through - I am lucky have access to a full shop - My buddy charges just under 100 bucks for the service. $200 pretty pricey!!!!

Should do it every 10K or 2 years - type 4 sure can hold moister which can really screw your brakes up.

 

I do my truck every two or three years. Did the Jeep Grand Cherokee I had before that about the same. Before that I didn't really know it should be done.

 

Every 50k on the vehicles - Yep I get **** about my bike maintenance mostly because I only have 2 wheels under me.

 

nope just had the brakes done on my truck and did a brake fluid flush the fluid was cloudy , that means moisture in it which is bad news

 

The last 3 car manufactures I have worked for call for every two years as well.

 

Brake fluid is hydroscopic = absorbs moisture. Same service interval applies to cars and has for decades.
