REFLECTOR: brakes fluid

[nmflyer1 at aol.com]

Barry, 

 Umm... because they dont make a DOT 6 :) 

If I recall correctly, it was because it was compatable with all the parts & more fire resistant. 

Not sure if anyone else did this or not, but I changed my master cylinders to this kind:



I ended up using swapping the rods out of the standard kit supplied master cylinder. They fit perfectly and bolted right up. They are a Whole lot cheaper and much better made.

Does any body know why Velocity is using DOT 5 brake fluid?
