Removing the reserviors and lifting them up to get the last little bit of air out of the reservoir banjo does the trick :thumbup: Handle up banjo down...easiest way :beer: :beer:

Reverse bleeding also works,pressure or vacuum

Coffee can,valve stem and bike pump... not a lot of pressure required

or

10 dollar spray bottle from Home Depot can be converted for cheap


or cheap flavor injector from a dollar store

Coffee can and vacuum source

I usually don't have any issues and have even changed clutch and brake lines in the past. The largest issue I've run into in the past was an air bubble at the master cylinder, essentially rendering the master cylinder useless. I tried all sorts of tricks, and it didn't seem to help. It's strange that it fixed itself. :lol: ...I figure the bike just didn't want me to ride it back in October but wanted to be ridden a few days ago. You know how these bikes have their own personalities. :wacko:
