Glycol-based brake fluids are hygroscopic and can absorb moisture over time, even through brake lines. In severe cases, brake fluid can contain significant amounts of water by volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is highly advised to replace brake fluid at least every 6-8 race events using a high wet boiling point racing fluid such as Maxima Race Fluid. Always use brake fluid from a sealed container. Do not use fluid from a bulk can or drum because it may have already absorbed moisture during storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW S1000 R (2018-2020)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW S1000 RR (2016-2018)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW S1000RR (2019-2022)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTriumph Speed Triple (2011-2016)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant Safety Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis brake pad compound is for RACE USE ONLY and is not intended for highway or street use.
