Genuine Honda Brakes

Brake systems aren't very complicated in how they work. Honda vehicles have either drum brakes or disc brakes, if not both. Each uses master brake cylinders, brake pistons, brake hoses, and brake lines. You press your foot against the brake pedal, causing the master brake cylinder send brake fluid through the lines and hoses. The difference between the two system lies in the parts involved in what happens at the end.

The Two Brake Systems
