2006 kx250f I have a brake problem

July 7, 2009 · 1 Comment

Q: 2006 kx250f: I have a brake problem. I landed on the front brake lever 
 and snapped the lever off. Now the brake does not work with a new lever 
back on. Is it the front master cylinder? The cylinder is full and there 
 was no fluid anywhere. Have any ideas?

 

A: Have you bled the brakes by pumping the lever four or five times and using 
 a small 8 or 10mm wrench to open the nut and release the pressure and the 
tighten it back up before you let go of the brake … A few times and you 
should be in good shape.

Response:  Thanks. It did not work, but I took apart the master cylinder and found that 
> the boot inside had a hole in it.

    Today I picked up a ATK Dirt Bike ,”96 model ,”260cc .Runs very good and fast .Was wonder though what it might be worth ? To be honest I’m a 46 year old Tattoo Artist ,and will probably only ride it down the Alley next to my house .I actually ride a 58 Triumph 650 Thunderbird a have a Harley .If you would know what it might be worth I would really appreciate it.Thank you
