Complete Guide To Bleeding Or Flushing Motorcycle Brakes

Bleeding or flushing brake lines is part of regular motorcycle maintenance, and it can easily be done by an amateur. In this video I'll go through the basics and then demonstrate two methods on a BMW R1200RT, the manual method and the vacuum method. You can skip ahead using these markers:

As I point out on the Triumph bikes in the video, bleeding or flushing brake lines is similar no matter the brand of motorcycle.
