SteveD, I used the caliper up brake fluid injection method you described in one of your posts after I installed new handlebars and brake lines. I had a totally empty system and it worked a treat. Filled the left side first then listened to the bubbles as I did the right side. Good firm lever and not a bubble in sight on the first try. Thanks

Steve's the 'brake man'.

I'll be looking up his great caliper rebuild thread before long.

I effed it up the first few times I tried it, but now that I get it :roll:, it's a great method.

I should also say thanks to Moosehead for the brake line information. You guys rock and roll.
