bleed

I have a bit of a problem that has been racking me for quite a while now. Last year on my last ride half way through I lost about half of my brake travel and only got a little brake when the pedal was about 3/4 down. At the time I thought it was just low on fluid so I never thought much of...

Hi all, I just put in a new output cylinder for the clutch due to a hairline crack in the cylinder cover, I put in all new cylinder, o'rings, cover and bleeder nipple. I have tried to bleed the clutch by removing the bleeder nipple and using a syringe to fill and push the air back through the...

So I replaced the front banjo bolt on the master cylinder with a Sicass Racing front brake switch. It came with a new copper washer. I purchased a second new from my dealer. This way both sides of the brake line have new washers. I then tried conventional bleeding with a motion pro brake...

The other day I adjusted the rear brake to raise it up above the peg and removed some slop since it felt a little squishy. I went riding today and after a bit the rear brake started to lock up, presumably from my adjustment from the other day in combination with the rear brake getting warmed up...

I feel really stupid for having to make this thread, I checked the owners doc and all it says is it is "difficult". I did the front brake with no problems at all, I reverse bled it with a syringe with some clear tube on the end, I could physically see that no air bubbles went in but when I...

98 FE 600 I decided to finally do the Joe usa recomendations and drill out the pilot and main air bleeds. I had a brain fart and for some stupid reason I drilled the pilot air screw out to 1.5mm. Can I leave it or should I epoxy it and redrill? I also noticed my main air bleed screw has a...

Rear bake worked fine the last time I rode my 2011 FE570S. Now I've got absoluteely nothing. I tried conventional bleeding, a Mighty-Mite to draw fluid through the line, a synringe to pump fluid through the line, and nothing. I can't get the thing to bleed. Help.

Ok, i tried bleeding the rear brakes like i have any oter bike i have ever owned-with my mitivac hand pump. Got a small dribble of fluid out and that was it. I then noticed it had sucked my caliper piston in,soooooo i tried to reverse bleed them with a syringe full of brake fluid-it pushed the...

Where is the coolant bleed screw on the '09/10 FE 450? I just refilled the system but I can't find any mention of bleeding the system in the manual. Thanks, Jay

Wow, Words cant explain the pure confidence and proud moment with my 8 year old son when together we fixed this clutch issue!!! I know I must have sounded like a idiot with some of my methods and questions. but I am amazed at those of you who stuck in there and helped me succeed. I...

Hi All. Had the head off to fix a dodgy valve guide and noticed a water jacket air bleed screw between the exhaust ports. Are there any others? Cheers Phil.

I can't find the air bleed screw on the head of my 98 fe400e. Is there one and if so where is the darn thing? The manual says nothing about it. Thanks, Roger

What are the procedures to bleed air from a PDS rear shock using the 'hydraulic pump motor'? 1. Where to connect the pump discharge hose, on the rebound hole or the high/low speed hole (I have the adapters)? 2. Others air bleeding procedures that must follow... Thanks. :o
