I would like to know how to do this before I remove the wrong bolts. Can anyone help. I can find nothing on the net to guide me.

Hi KniteMare,

I'm sure someone here has a shop manual for a Honda 250 Reflex that can help you.

Maybe not.

Sometimes I go to the Honda dealerships web pages. They have illustrations and parts lists of different assemblies on scooters to look at.

You might just take a look.

I hope this helps.

That was exactly what I was looking for. I have built many bikes just from the manual so now that I can see the exploded view it will be no problem

Thanks so much!

Be careful on the back piston, it is part of the parking brake ass'y. To get the piston back in to fit new brake pads you need to screw it in, not just press it back in. I forget which way to turn it. It has to do with the parking brake. There are all kinds of little pieces inside the piston. It has a big cross hatch on it and I used a piece of 3/16 flat stock to turn it.

If changing or bleeding brakes on the back (left grip) bleed the front first piston (the middle part of front brake, lower bleeder)then the back piston.

DO NOT ALLOW RES TO GET LOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is a pain to get the air out of the lines then. Usually an air bubble gets caught in the banjo bolt at the handlebars.

Hope this helps

OK, I will begin this project tommorow. I will take pictures to post so that the next person can see the process.

Any other tips, suggestions, cautions??

Thanks
Brian
