My purpose is to encourage people to do things themselves!
Plus, this is a nice hobby for myself and at the same time I have the opportunity to save a lot of money by doing all the maintenance myself!
I’m not a professional with cars or motorcycles, I just want to learn how to do things myself.
If you do this service yourself, always check the correct instructions in the official service manuals. This is just my way of doing it!

this is gold. Whatever possessed me to buy this bike lol.

[@zigzogoid4591]

Thanks for sharing this. Very informative.

[@juancarlosddl6126]

Very good both videos. I have learned a lot. Thanks you very much.

[@JaniVoutilainen]

You're welcome! 😊

[@vasteve911]

Great video. Well done!

[@philipolson3838]

Very well done and exactly how it should be done. This is the same for the R1200rt, gs with servo brake 2004 thru 2008. Thanks for posting.

[@bmwrider1]

Easy to follow and all the info is presented good job and thanks

[@SamThorpes]

Thanks for this video.

[@heinrichs877]

Klasse Video, vielen Dank

[@joebrown2246]

Wow ! My 2002 R1100s abs looks to be the same Heard horror stories about doing this abs bleeding MANY thanks for sharing these superb videos I will give it a go once I find a suitable plastic bottle /funnel Update : Did this last year as my rear brake abs was sticking on !!! Works fine now ; superb money saving assistance from your videos CHEERS I used a spare old 12v battery to run the abs motor & keep clearing the dirty oil out & save my good battery on the bike

[@JaniVoutilainen]

I was also a little skeptical but in vain. I haven't done that myself before, so I wanted to try and did very well 👍. I thought this video could be useful for all DIY people. And great if it is useful. 😊

[@joebrown2246]

@@JaniVoutilainen Just replaced all of my OEM sh1t hoses for expensive goodridge braided ones A bit of a pig trying to get all the air out until eventually I got a rhythm going with running pump longer and watching the bubbles up into the funnel The funnel with a clear tube and rubber adapter to fit the abs reservoir is a gr8 help for this purpose So far all good = no warnings or fault lights and brakes feel excellent Cheers again Jani Seen some other videos about not needing funnel ?! might be ok for a service but NOT if you are changing hoses and running pump for longer bleeding purposes ; use a spare battery too 👍

[@rongawer]

Very helpful, thanks

[@andyroyphotography800]

Great help, enjoyed thank you

[@JaniVoutilainen]

You're welcome! 👍

[@kevinflaherty9286]

Thanks for great videos. So clear. I am in the process of doing my 2002 and hit a snag that bears noting for others. If not careful when replacing the wiring plug on the ABS unit (all those pins) it is possible to push one of the pins down such that a connection is lost. In my case it meant constant cycling of the pump on start-up/activation. Searching for an answer on a 2014 UK website gave me a clue. Sure enough, pulling the pin back up meant a good contact again and the pump cycles off after the test, working as it is supposed to. Thanks again for the great and confidence inspiring video.

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Great that the video inspires and encourages you to do the maintenance yourself! 👏 Sometimes your own work can fail, but that feeling of success is great when the problem gets solved!

[@rongill8713]

Hi Just a observation I would think leaving the pistons out slightly could leave old fluid in the system and possibly air which is what you don’t want in the system so holding the pistons out limits the possible void for air and old fluid.

[@kustmenklooten]

Super, thanks a lot!

[@JaniVoutilainen]

You're welcome! 😊

[@rongill8713]

Great Video very detailed . Just another question what were the bleed ports 1-2-3 be for on each circuit.

[@rosariocavallaro8636]

Thanks you for your video , it is very clear .

[@JaniVoutilainen]

You're welcome! 😊

[@amirnadi3155]

Thanks your video s so helpful

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Great that the video is useful 😊

[@dominicl4096]

Great video and super helpful. One question though, when pushing the caliper bores all the way in, wouldn’t brake fluid first have to be drawn off from the under tank reservoirs? Not sure if there’s enough room in the system to compensate for the displaced brake fluid.

[@davidmartinblazqiuez3363]

Genial

[@rongill8713]

Hi before doing this full fluid change were there any ABS warning light abnormal signals as I am looking at a 2001 R1150R which has some ABS warning light signals intermittent

[@alexandrevasseur1585]

Hello Yani, Do you have the référence of the oil bottle ? 🤔

[@laurencesauty5033]

Qu'elle épaisseur la calle en bois? Merci

[@KatieCutie164]

Excellent video! Thanks so much...you saved me serious money. One question, why must you remove the calipers and install the shim when bleeding system? Could I just keep them in place like on a car?

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Thanks! 😊 The brake cylinders must be positioned as deep as possible in the brake calipers. If the brake pads are worn, it is a good idea to replace the brake pads with blocks. There’s a BMW tool for that, but I did the work with the blocks.

[@yannisgiokas]

You say when changing fluids in control circuit do not use vacuum extraction.Why? Thanks for the videos! Very helpful.

[@JaniVoutilainen]

Great that the video has been helpful! 😊 True! I've probably read the instructions incorrectly. The instructions tell you the warning text: "When changing and bleeding the control circuit brake fluid, do not use vacuum extraction". But Bleeding / changing brake fluid in wheel circuit, there is no such mention. Anyway, I actually rely more on the traditional style because you may not see air bubbles during vacuum extraction. 👍

[@yannisgiokas]

Yes you are right. Thanks again!

[@gabidagon]

on similar model during bleeding (before watching your videos) I've got the abs and warning lights blinking , can you help with reseting the error, thanks

[@JaniVoutilainen]

System does its own system check every time it's turned on. You can download service manual for R1150R from here: bmw.k100rs.free.fr/files/repair_manuals/BMW_R1150R_ABS_ENG.pdf Check the page 42 ( [Integral ABS] Changing/bleeding brake fluid in wheel circuit) The ABS warning light should flash when stationary. When you start driving, it should go off. Air can be drawn into the brake system but if this the case; bleed the system again. I hope this will help! 👍

Part 3- BMW

[@Larry_Mott]

Why can´t you just leave the calipers in place on the discs? Not critisizing, just curious.

[@michaeldavis1659]
