guys Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Pictures say more than words: To prevent the minor leak (@ 4:53 in the film) I put some teflon tape on the treads of the bleederscrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony27 Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Changed my rear master cylinder earlier this year & found the easiest/only way to get all the air bled out was to remove the reservoir & fit a syringe in place of it to force the fluid through the system with the bleed nipple open. The syringe we used was an old loctite master gasket tube which doesn't seem to get affected by the brake fluid unlike a proper syringe from a vets which the body seems to swell away from the rubber seal inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramit Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) I have to bleed my back brake on my sherco 125 2007 I kind of know what to do and my dad does to but any hints and tips would be great thanks What helps when bleeding the rear brake is to stand the bike up (front wheel up) as this will help the air bubbles move toward the master cyl.while you are pushing the fluid (using a syringe like in the video) from the caliper to the master cyl. (air bubbles naturally rise) Edited December 23, 2012 by kramit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
