Brake bleeding is a job I loathe, this kit looks like making the job a lot easier.
Are there any special measures required for doing ABS equipped brakes?

I can attest that not only is brake fluid bad for paintwork, it tastes awful.
I took a look at the Haynes manual and it does not suggest you need to do anything different at all for the ABS version, in fact, the process is identical. As for the mouth wash effect yuck!!

4) checks on the start relay
5) a talk about the interlock circuit - clutch and sidestand.

An explanation to all that just because your battery measures over 12V does not necessarily make it good.

Basically a "go to" guide on the charging system.
LOVE this!! Making a note and have added it to my list, I think this is great idea!
