bleed

Can anyone tell me what size the front bleed nipples are? Mine are looking a bit manky so want to replace but can't seem to find definite answer. My bike is rsv 1000 tuono 2004 non factory model with gold brembos.

So I decided to change my front brake res from the crappy clear plastic one to a Aluminium one. i have sucked out the old fluid with a syringe and disconnected the clips and removed the short hose. fitted new hose,clips and reservoir to the bars. i have then filled a new syringe with dot 4...

Struggling isn't the word. Cannot bleed the clutch for love nor money, I understand the normal pump and release method is useless with these clutch slaves. Have tried attaching a syringe full of fluid onto the slave bleeder with plastic piping, with bleed nipple open at the slave no fluid...

Swapped standard Tuono clutch master to RSVR's radial and now air bleed valve leaking a bit. I want to replace with a new one, but I cannot find specs anywhere. Does anyone know thread size of the bleeder? Is it 10 x 1.25? Cheers

Need to bleed my brakes/clutch on my aprilia mille 99 What oil should I use?

I,ve just emptied brake and clutch fluid and renewed with fresh. I,ve bled the brakes no problem and they are fine. Thing is, after bleeding the clutch, it's now like rock hard to pull the lever in, like harder than front brake and its not disengaging the clutch although I can hear the clutch...

I changed the fluid in the clutch yesterday and it doesn,t seem quite right. While I was bleeding it, the lever went rock hard and wouldn't come right back to bar. I've been out today on it and it's not smooth anymore when you change gear. Biting points about a millimetre from bar but wasn't...

I started bleeding my break today. I got a rubber tube, unscrewed the bleeder and connected everything like in the picture. Started pumping the break and a lot of air bubbles started coming up the tube. After a half an hour of pumping tiny bubbles were still coming out. I kept at it for an...

Me again Soddin bleed nipple has snapped off in the m/c, can't find a replacement on line, anyone know a brake specialist or decent part supplier?

Bleed nips are a bit buggered on the Fuono and it was taking a freaking eternity to sort em. Sucking air back in through the threads like, no matter how delicate I was. Ended up putting the old pumper oil can filled with dot on and squirting it back through the nip towards the res. Anyone else...

as the title says.. is it 8mm or 10mm bleed nipples :biggrin cheers guys

Just had my rear caliper off my 99 Mille to re-paint, having real bother trying to bleed it up properly, i started with an eezi-bleed and then tried an air fed fluid extractor and pulled the fluid through but still got full travel on the rear brake, im currently trying to gravity bleed it and...

I've got 2 leaking, one on the master cylinder and one of the front calipers, really strange as i've never had this happen before? bit of a strange one really, any ideas about where i'd get replacements from?

After 9 years of bleeding the sodding rear brake the nipple is starting to round off. Has anyone got a spare they wanna let me have please? Thanks Guys

I was reading earlier that the screws on the ECU are supposed to be at 12 o'clock stock. What is the best way to make adjustments to these? Do I need a special tool to make the adjustments and dyno it? Should they both cylinders adjustments stay the same or does one sometimes need more...

Hi Guys, I bled my front brake on the weekend using the nice swanky Silkolene Dot 4 racing fluid. I popped the front wheel out, forced the pads back into the caliper and used the traditional bleed method even though i used a bleed kit with a non-return valve (i.e nip bleed nipple shut, release...

Can someone give me the link to the process for the regular bleeding of the clutch. I aren't talking about the full on bleed from scratch, just what I need to do when I start to feel the bike creeping forward a bit.

Having bought myself a syringe kit off Fleabay I thought I'd give my non-existent rear brake the benefit of 30 min of attention and try and get some resistance from the pedal to translate into effect at the disc. I emptied the miniature reservoir about 5-6 times and had no bubbles coming out at...

Just change the clutch plates and secided I would bleed the clutch.:eatcorn What a fecking disaster. I connected the syringe to the slave nipple and undid the breathe bolt and injected fresh fluid into the slave and when the resovoir was full i drained all the old fluid out and connected my...
