Can anyone give me advice on bleeding brakes.
I am setting up a master cylinder of 11mm piston diameter on the front end of my 850, which is running with an RGM big disc and Grimeca twin pot caliper.
I have pumped the piston and connected a tube to the bleed nipple at the caliper, running down into a glass jar with some fluid in. The tube fills with brake fluid up to the point where it turns downwards towards the glass jar, when I pump it just runs away down towards the jar. The system still allows the lever to touch the bars without too much resistance.
Has anyone got a good method of bleeding I don't know about. I always seem to struggle here...
