Title: Re: Bleeding Front Brakes I need some suggestion. Post by: ebtrx450r on August 08, 2006, 07:02:09 PM get a vacuum bleeder and reverse bleed them. That's the easiest and most effective. Other than that you just need to make sure your master cylinder is full of fluid, put the lid on, pump them up, hold the lever, and then undo the bleeder screw and tighten it back before you let your hand off of the lever. Repeat until all the air comes out and the lever feels firm. Good luck

Open the bleeder and hook the vacuum pump up to the bleeder screw and pump. Make sure someone else is watching the master cylinder, keeping it full. It will bleed the brakes and replace the old fluid with new at the same time. I do everything I own every year. My quad, street bike and truck. It's helps the brake system last longer.

Once the bubbles quit coming out, close the nut and your done.

I also start at the rear first then do the right front then the left front. Title: Re: Bleeding Front Brakes I need some suggestion.
