As in the previous episodes, I do service for my BMW R1150 motorcycle
Diagnosis & maintenance BMW Motorrad R1150R 2003 engine R28
- Location of clutch vent pipe and ventilation screw
- The only purpose was to change the clutch fluids but a few variables came into play...
- Turn the handlebars to a position in which the clutch fluid reservoir is horizontal
- Keep the brake fluid away from painted surfaces
- Choose a well-fitting screwdriver so you don't break the screw head from fluid reservoir!
- Two screws do not mean to open from fluid reservoir
- Gently strike the power tool slightly while trying to loosen the screw
- Clutch fluids should be replaced every 2 years!
- Release bleed line from the frame
- The intention was just to warm up a bit bleed line socket-head!! To make Loctite give up better!!
- Result was; Need to replace a new clutch vent pipe, so we need access to clutch slave cylinder
- Remove rear brake caliper and rear wheel
- Spread the brake pads off the disc by turning and pushing to get the brake caliper off better
- Now is a good time check rear wheel bearing play by tilting wheel
- A good time to check the brake disc thickness
- Remove rear wheel bolts
- The tire cannot fit out without removing rear silencer first
- Slacken the clamp from rear silencer
- Make sure you remember to put the spacer of rear wheel back in place
- Need to remove frame tube from gearbox for better access to clutch slave cylinder
- A lot needs to be disassembled from the front to remove the frame tube ...
- Remove side panels and fuel tank
- Remove intake pipe bolt from rear frame
- Support the final drive with a jack
- Release upper bolt from rear spring strut
- Remove brake line from the rear frame
- Release rear brake fluid reservoir from its holder
- Loosen the fasteners securing the left footrest plate
- Remove rear screw of left footrest plate
- Remove top screw of left footrest plate
- You can leave the front bolt loose in place
- Remove fasteners securing rear brake master cylinder to footrest plate
- Remember the correct order for the sleeves of rear master cylinder
- Remove the right footrest plate
- Remove rear-frame fasteners on left and right at front, but only loosen strut fasteners
- Disconnect the air temperature sensor plug, remove air filter cover and filter element
- Remove screw from air filter housing to frame
- Tilt the rear frame up and secure it with a strap attached to the handlebars
- Lift the rear frame up only enough to remove the frame tube from the gearbox
- Now you have access to remove frame tube from gearbox
- Loosen frame tube screws
- Remove the frame tube
- Now I have room to get to change that clutch bleed line (vent pipe) I broke
- In the next episode, we disconnect the clutch slave cylinder and replace the clutch vent line

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!
