Hey guys and gals,
Well as the title says im after some tips on brake bleeding, Ive not actually done them before so i done soe reading and asked a mate of mine and there seems to be a few ways of going about this job.
Like:
The normal way of pumping the lever, open close nipple + repeat
Putting a long hose onto the nipple, open the nipple and suck till bubbles stop, close nipple
Do you guys know of any other ways and have any other tips on how to do this job?
Cheers in advance

im with Kev on this one! Cant see why you would join a forum and call some one a moron and an idiot in your first post with out actually introducing your self.....
But saying that Kev a prick can be useful...........i think a more apropriate name is in order.

Pretty sure it only effects new bikes afterthe date the law is passed (i think, dont quote me) as they are now being made with catilic converters and all the other eco/safty gumph (not that im against more safty stuff) Because say that you own an old BSA or Norton for example and you buy it as a "shed find non runner" then your gunna have no choise in fitting non manufacter fitted parts to get it back on the road. So if the law is passed on every bike on the road then you wont be able to restor your belovid old british bikes. (or any other old bike)

Yer I thought my camara manship was a bit shit as I only had just over a minute of recording time left, so once ive got her out the shed I will do a better vid of her n walk around her better.
Im well happy with the Matt black, I got it off amazon, called cobra big black, 600ml can and you can get two cans for £15 BARGIN compared to halfruads one 500ml can for £15!

Hey guys heres a quick update on the old progress and i have to say.......im well chuffed so far.
Im hoping this video will work if not i will have to learn how to put it onto Youtube.
I put the handle bars one temperarily as they will have to come off again to get her out the shed, ive put the handle bar grips on that have the indecators built into them, pulled out the choke put her on resurve and push the button and she turns over and few times and aways she goes!!!!

Sorry about the camara-manship its a small shed and trying to show the bike off with one hand was a wee bit difficult lol
Just been out side today and sorted out the tick over and she runs like a beauty!!
Still gotta do the seat brakets, front brake, head light and my number plate light. Then shes on the road!
I cant wait any longer -
Looks wise.........that Honda is stunning! that monstosity of a Yamaha there is horrid (in my opinion) Im not too ofey with economical stuff so im prob no help here as i like my stuff with BIG engines (my daily driver is a 2.5 V6 MG ZT with 190bhp which i can just get 30mpg out of it if i behave lol) But saying that the Dragstar aint that bad with the fuel.

No but you could always introduce your self in the new members part of the forum and then you may get some help.

Loud Pipes don't save lives - Riding so people know you're there, does.
I Do agree, i sore that saying on a sticker on Flea bay and it made me chuckle so thought id have a light harted giggle with it in this post.
But i do like a good V twin sound effect, my neighbour next door to me had a 1200 Bandit (sold it now has he couldn't fix a problem with it) and he made a habbit of going out side every day, fire it up, bounce it on the red a few times, shut it down n go back in doors.....?????? so i think its only fair i have loud pipes, start my fooker up and ride to work. lol.

It shows how confident they are with it being hit from the side when they are on the ice and they hit it with a tyre they still have a man standing with it to make sure it dont fall over!! So dose that mean that for every one they sell they have to give you a giant to catch you when your hit side on?
-
You can pick up some good cheap pipes on ebay mate, thats where i got mine from and they where only £100 with £10 p+p.
I love loud pipes and ive riden my bike from Yeovil to Southampton and back again with no dramas. The only thing i dont like about my pipes is that they are too long (right near the back of the rear tyre) so thay are meeting a chop saw to bring them back a wee bit.
As the old saying gose "loud pipes save lives" lol
-
I have a set of Raasks that i got off of ebay which are basically straight throughs and are stupidly loud! i personally would just buy your self another set of pipes you like and keep your standard ones for the MOT. yes its a pain in the arse changing them over but its only once a year.

Thats awsome!!!! well the bit where he sticks his finger in the way is at least!! PMSL what a twat.

Yup she is def hot! but you may as well buy a car! and i cant see it staying up right when billy boy wanker racer hits you side on at more than 30MPH!

Sorry ment Harley davidson WLA (my typo lol)

Yer i see where your coming from with majority of the stuff being chrome! im ot a big lover of chrome but i have left some bits on my bike just to brake up the black and give a little bit of shine to the bike, but i would never go nuts on the stuff as i like to ride bikes not polish it for 3 hours then leave it in the garage till the next no cloud day of the year.
Again, i see the practical useage of saddle bags.........but they still are on the "gay" list for me lol. If i was in need of a set id most likely try and get my hands on a set off WW2 saddle bags off of a old mail bike or a similar style. (you know the ones like on the Harley WLM)
I cant wait any longer

I do like marine fish! i own a few tropical fish in my 4ft fish tank. (spent a pretty penny setting it up lol)
In my tank i have,
10inch long fire eel called larry
4 golden barbs
Two common plecs one is 15inchs long and the other is 6inches
A rainbow shark,
A few mollies
And here are the ones i had but died
Two African Ghost knife fish
Four silver sharks
Four Red nosed torpiedos
Red clawed Crab (killed by my small plec)
Male Jap fighter (killed by my big plec)
School of neon tetras (sucked into my old filter)
I had a Brasilian night fish but he was an agressive fucker so took him back to the shop lol
I love to sit and watch them at night if there is shit all on TV and my little girl (8 months old) loves to watch them before she gose to bed, I think its a good hobby to have (bar bike riding) its just rewarding knowing you have set up a good fish tank thats thriving and just see all the colours that they give off when your tank is healthy.
