Hi folks.
I was wondering when changing brake/clutch fluids has any body fitted speed bleeder valves.
And if so
A. What did they think ?.
B. What make and where from and do you know the sizes.
I nearly purchased the full set from Murphskits across the pond the order stated 0 postage .
Then the day after another part of them requested $40 shipping I wasn't
Impressed the cost of the parts again which would fit in a jiffy bag . :censored: :censored:
Thanks in advance keep safe all :yes:
I don't use speed bleeders, I use a non return valve in a piece of tubing, works a treat.
I use the dealer method, take bike to dealer, explain what I want, sit down and drink their free drinks, pay them money and then ride away and at no time have I even got my hands dirty. :mfr_lol:

And quite rightly so, it's so undignified doing the work yourself when you can pay someone else to graft for you. :popcorn:
I've used those little no return valves in the past, but usually do it conventionally. Never had any problems getting the air out. Patience is a virtue! If the brake lines have been changed I fill the slave cylinders first, using a syringe.
But dealers are the easiest option
I use the old fashioned way called the wife.
She holds it, and I say in then out while turning the nipple, after a while I say hold it in and she does while i nip it up.
Then I check all is well and if so she can them make coffee.

Did you have a fag after :mfr_lol:
I've used them in the past on other bikes, but never on the C14 or the Indian. Probably won't. Can do it just as well without them.
