Forsure you can, Have a great day.

Thanks for posting this video Roger. I got a builder to fully customize my Roadstar 1700cc 2005 but I kept the original breaks so your video was easy to follow and lucky I did, I would have forgotten about the darn arrows lol. Great job...

Thanks a million for posting this! Noticed this evening that it’s time to change mine on my ‘08. Your video definitely helped clear out some confusion. Looks pretty simple as long as you take your time! Excellent!

Fantastic looking Roadstar Roger! You must be really proud. Great video! Thanks for filling all of us in on what to do w/our brakes. You're a patriot. God bless you Roger.

I use 2 hard wood wedges between the pad and rotor to drive the pistons in, then i don't have to remove the caliper, you can also use two screwdrivers to accomplish it, saves a lot of time

Hi Roger. I have watched both of you brake pad replacement videos and I really like them, very straightforward. Anyway, can you tell me if the front pads are the same as the rear pads and what part number or model of pads are you using? Thank you so much.

Hi Roger, is it necessary to remove the calipers on a 2005? I have been reading that the pads will come right out without the removal of the caliper. They clymer manual doesn't reference removal of the calipers in their instruction of the 2004 and beyond, only the 1999-03.

Hello Roger! Would you be able to do/post a video on how to bleed both tje rear and the front breaks? I've seenba few videos but they are using a bleeding kit with and air compressor and I don't bhave an air compressor nor do I have access to one. If you'd be able to please post a step by step on how to bleed the breaks the old school way, I'd appreciate it. Thank you brother!

Jose Rojas jr I bled mine with a video off of you tube and it was pretty easy. Basically I used a syringe, a long piece of clear tubing and I pumped the brake fluid up from the bottom of the caliper to the brake reservoir and it pushed all the dirt out. I think the video is called "reverse bleed brake fluid" nice project good luck.
