Tech Tip: If you want to use DOT 5, it may be easier to decide if it's right for you with a little additional knowledge about this type of brake fluid.
DOT 5 silicone is not aggressive to painted surfaces, plastics and has anti-corrosive characteristics, is not hygroscopic and therefore does not absorb water.
Excellent features for vehicles that are not used much.
However, when water accumulates in the brake system over time and is not absorbed by the brake fluid, it could theoretically create pockets of water that could boil under extreme circumstances.
This could result in vapor lock and total brake failure.
Since DOT 5 silicone does not absorb water, accumulated water may not be completely removed from the brake system when the brake fluid is changed.
DOT 5 silicone can never be mixed with DOT 3 or 4 brake fluids.
It is also not compatible with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) or ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation) as it will foam more easily.
Please note that HD Motor Company used DOT 5 until approximately 2006, around the time ABS was introduced...

Compatible with: > Softail, Dyna, V-Rod through 2005, FLT/Touring through 2004, XL through 2006
