Can anyone.....

[BoomerCPO]

I am in the process of planning some 70,000 mile maintenance for my 06 Midnight Venture.

Can anyone here inform me and or list the specific PARTS and/or SUPPLIER for the following items:

1) Valve cover gaskets. (the plan is to check/adjust all valves)

2) Complete set of carb gaskets...(the plan is to pull the carbs and re-set all carb floats)

3) EBC front & rear brake pads.

4) Is DOT 5 the best brake fluid to use for brake lines and clutch reservoirs?

Thanks in advance for any assistance rendered!!!

EBC Brake pads. I got the sintered and really like these.

DOT 5 is not compatible With DOT 3 or DOT 4. DOT 5.1 is.

DO NOT USE DOT 5!

 

It will react with any DOT 4 remaining in the system and make razor sharp crystals. The only way you can switch is to completely overhaul the system with lines and seals that are compatible with DOT 5.

 

Stick with the DOT 4 Yamaha used.

The EBC pads shop around ebay has good prices.

 

 

Do not use DOT 5 brake fluid. You can use DOT 5.1 as mentioned or a good DOT 4

 

 

IMHO.
