Although a proper two person bleed always yields better results if done properly. The vacuum can sometimes draw air through the thread.If the nipples aren't drawing don't stress. Fully undo them unblock the little hole with a pin or needle then smash compressed air down it. Put it back in and all good Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80858-changing-brake-fluid/page/2/#findComment-1263749 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest XR09 Guests Posted 07/07/12 10:27 PM Share Posted 07/07/12 10:27 PM Try bleeding bloody Honda's linked brake system without a speedbleeder. Hide the oxy first or you will burn the bike.
