Does anyone know of a supplier for bleedable banjo bolts for the Kawi MCs? I have one on my VStrom and they are being installed as original equipment on newer models by some manufacturers.
On the brake lines you pull the front brake all the way back and zip tie it, leaving it over night. In the AM hold the brake and crack the bleeder at MC and that last bit of air that goes to the top of the line at the MC will crack. The brake pull becomes noticeable firmer. It should be the same for clutches I would think. I'm a firm believer in regularly changing out brake fluids. I do so immediately upon purchasing a used bike if there in no service record of it having been done in the previous 2 years. When I bought my gently used, low mileage (9400) 2007 Nomad in 2015 it still had the original fluid in the lines. So first thing I did was to change all of the fluids, brake, oil and water.
