Thanks T Cro; I've  worked on everything from weed eaters to 20 ton excavators, nothing really bothers me, just like to learn.  :)

I just saw this discussion.
Sounds like your changing to Dot 5 because the Dot 4 may hurt the paint?
Is there another advantage that I'm missing?
I think the Dot 5 is a higher temp brake fluid, but unless your extremely aggressive or using the bike for racing, the temps shouldn't be a problem.

Ride safe, Ted
