Bleeding front brake

Recommended Posts

Read a few people had a prob bleeding the front brake, so did I,

I put a new piston in the master cylinder, and got no joy moving the fluid,

So I adjusted the span and freeplay on the lever, then I had movement of the fluid, was a simple job once lever was adjusted to get max flow.

This may help someone out.lol

always make sure there is free-play with pin that pushes piston in...otherwise back-bleed hole does not clear to allow oil in..this can also cause front brake to lock up after about 30mins use as it pumps fluid in under breaking but does not release pressure,so again make sure the piston has no pressure on it from the screw.  ;-]
