Went and visited DR Friday to have my Brake Fluid tested. Dennis tested the resevoir and the little test strip went straight to the darkest color which meant I needed new fluid. only took about 20-30 minutes to suck out the old while pulling the new in and I was gone. Very pleasant experience. Thanks :banana:

Any difference in brake feel before and after?

Did he bleed all brake lines to ensure the new BF was in each?

He has a machine. It works GREAT. I had it done earlier this year. Yes, there is greater pedal feel and less pedal effort.

they went to each caliper starting from the farthest point and worked toward the drivers side caliper. it's a great machine. actually sucks the new fluid thru the resevoir all the way down the brake line. I did notice a firmer pedal on hard braking (ie. off the interstate on a short offramp). new brake fluid ain't ever hurt nobody. it's especially good since new brake fluid actually lubricates all the seals unlike the old ate up fluid. have the keep the Marauder in tip top shape. ya know?

When I got my brake system flushed I noticed better pedal feel.
