DERBY
Well after a short blast out on Sat i decided that my brakes didn't seem up to scratch (bit spongy) so decided to renew fluid and bleed them thru.Seven and a half hours,60 **** n multiple coffees later i seem to have sorted my front brakes.Don't ask every time i thought i was sorted out popped another bubble,solidness went off n off i went again.Didn't help when m8 on ZZR1400 came round Sun and he compared my brake feel with his and he basically said mine were pants hence 3hours work Sat nite down the pan and another 3 and a half Sun nite followed.Admittedly some of the time was spent gettin correct bleedin setup sorted but its never take me this long before.Could be a record LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
So long as they're ok thats the main thing :thumbup

Does seem rather a long time tho', are you sure you haven't got any splits/leaks etc :confused
 
Hi Sprocker nah just think when they were originally 'serviced' and i say that loosly by D n K last Nov they weren't done properly.Just bled my clutch aswell and now all is well.Just going to have to watch my self first couple of times out n bout.
