How do i replace/bleed brake fluid?
Its sad i know but ive never done that before.
Got this bleeder bottle though but im not shure what to do.

Ive been reading the instructions in the workshop manual on how to bleed
the brakes but do i really need to follow those instructions when i got such
a bling bottle with a non-return valve in it?

first did the rears but the cossy has an abs pump which will fill teh back brakes
so what i did was put the fluid in and turn on ignition, push the brakes a few times and the pump will start pumping then just open the bleednipple and i repeated that until there was no air comming out at all.
The fronts i did the old way withouth ign on and just at the end only 2 times did bleed em with the engine running
does this make sense? (its hot in here)

But what about the high pressure in the rear lines?
So for the rears i could basicly just attach the bleeder hose to the nipple, open it up and let it pour out and pressure drops close nipple and switch ignition back on to get pump to pressurize?

sorry mate havent been looking here but the back brakes are pressurized by the pump when switcing ign on
so what i did is open the nipples and switch the ign on (with my bleerder hose attached offcourse) and waited until my brakes only gave fluid instead of (old) fluid and air
Dunno about tose tiny bubbles but it might be worth when been driving gently a few days to open the nipples again for a final bleed
