Default Motul Brake Fluid....(is the search function working?)

(First need to apologize if this has been answered before, but I cannot find the answer in the search)

I will be bleeding my brakes soon, where I can get Motul Brake Fluid? What is a good price for the fluid? Thanks in advance.

Local crotch rocket shop. Call around. You should be able to find some at local bike shops.

Do we need to change the brake lines for the motul 600? I am not well informed on this subject, can someone please clearify if the motul 600 is compatible for our brake systems or if we need to modify anything. thanks

I have Motul 600 if anyone needs it $9 each, usually you'll want to get 3 bottles

You do not need to change brake lines for Motul RBF 600. It's a DOT 4 fluid (meets DOT 5 boiling points) and can be mixed with any other DOT 3 or DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 fluid.

Mike, I thought you only need two bottles for a full flush on the ITR... no?

dave, me and the local boys (ralph, lance, matt, jeff) are ordering 2 cases of ate superblue (1 blue, 1 yellow). let know if you want in for 2 cans ($9/can). 1 can will completely flush the brake system with some leftover.

Here are the dry and wet boiling points for many of the most popular brake fluids:

ARRANGED BY DRY BOILING POINT:

DRY:401F -- WET:284F --- DOT3 MINIMUM
DRY:446F -- WET:311F --- DOT4 MINIMUM
DRY:500F -- WET:356F --- DOT5 MINIMUM
DRY:502F -- WET:343F --- VALVOLINE SYNPOWER
DRY:509F -- WET:365F --- MOTUL 5.1
DRY:527F -- WET:302F --- AP RACING 551
DRY:536F -- WET:392F --- ATE SUPERBLUE/TYP200
DRY:590F -- WET:410F --- AP RACING 600
DRY:590F -- WET:518F --- CASTROL SRF
DRY:593F -- WET:420F --- MOTUL RBF600
DRY:610F -- WET:421F --- NEO-SYNTHETIC SUPER DOT 610


ARRANGED BY WET BOILING POINT:

DRY:401F -- WET:284F --- DOT3 MINIMUM
DRY:527F -- WET:302F --- AP RACING 551
DRY:446F -- WET:311F --- DOT4 MINIMUM
DRY:502F -- WET:343F --- VALVOLINE SYNPOWER
DRY:500F -- WET:356F --- DOT5 MINIMUM
DRY:509F -- WET:365F --- MOTUL 5.1
DRY:536F -- WET:392F --- ATE SUPERBLUE/TYP200

You'll note that the boiling point of Motul RBF 600 is 57 degrees higher than ATE. That's a big difference.
