To avoid damage to the brake hose
during removal, support the caliper
assembly so that it doesn't hang from
the hose. Do not twist the brake hose.
Avoid depressing the brake pedal
when the wheel is off the motorcycle.
This will force the caliper pistons out
of the cylinders. The result will be a
loss of brake fluid. If this occurs, the
brake system will require service.
See your Honda dealer for this
