Brake bleeding .

I just use a clear plastic hose and let gravity do its thing .Never had a problem .
So whats this talk about speed bleeders and pumps about ?Can i get my brakes to work better ?

don't you have a job now?

Oh dear ,i was hopping no one would notice .I could be in trouble tonight .

Just makes it quicker. I use a Mityvac 8000 vacuum pump. Makes it a one person job to do clutch and brakes

I use a 25mm syringe.

doesn't that hurt

I have a one way valve on a hose. Bought it at supercheap. just crack the nipple open and pump till your happy all air is out

I sometimes use one of these

But the air comes out the 20c clear hose .I still dont understand .
To change fluid i just make sure the fluid doesnt get to low .No lever pump and close nipple thing .Just connect hose ,release nipple keep topping
up res . untill new fluid comes out the hose . Simple , why the other stuff ,takes 5 mins .?? And no 2nd person .

Properly bled Bandit brakes are fantastic.
I had my fronts done last tyre change. Much firmer Leaver and very reassuring.

I always had trouble with the Honda until someone suggested taking the caliper/calipers off , putting a 6mm plate between the shoes and raising them higher than the master cylinder. Air can't get trapped along the line that way.
