husoi Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 What I don't like about these is that if you leave the bike for a few hours the braking system is under pressure for a log period. Quote

Snod Blatter Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 What I don't like about these is that if you leave the bike for a few hours the braking system is under pressure for a log period. What I don't get is a thief can just undo the bleed nipple and wheel it away.. Quote
gogs01 Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 What I don't get is a thief can just undo the bleed nipple and wheel it away.. Let's hope he gets an eyeful of brake fluid when he does that ..... Quote
Gerontious Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 My bike has a lockable brake... On the rear wheel. Purely mechanical - no hydraulics. Quote
pyror Posted May 1, 2020 Author Posted May 1, 2020 Hi, this "lock" i want is not for anti theft, but for parking when the grond isnt 100% flatt. can it be a problmem if the brakes has pressure over a longer time? somting like this that i did find today, just in high quality. https://sg.carousell.com/p/yamaha-xmax-300-brake-lever-w-rear-brake-locking-function-216277860/ thx.

Leave the bike in gear with a wheel against the kerb Quote
Bender Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 If you leave it under pressure for long periods your just adding to general wear and increasing the chance of a leak on a seal, it's not something I would personally want to do. Quote
pyror Posted May 1, 2020 Author Posted May 1, 2020 hmmm... thx for feedback. wher i live ( northen norway wher hills are evrywear) its kinda rarely to cube to prakt agenst. is inn gear enough you think? i guess parking with front wheeil upp is the best? Quote
Stu Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 Its always best to park in a way in that you can easily get the bike out and in that the bike is secure on the side stand Quote
