#BMWR1150R #CLUTCH #SLAVECYLINDER #HYDRAULICLINE #BLEEDLINE

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 wellfitting 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 sockethead!! 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 rearframe 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

Let’s continue with the next episode! Stay tuned!

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!
