Go on then, I dare ya. The last cheapo I bought off of fleabay was a f**king load of rubbish, failed right out of the box.
Ill beat that....just a bit of plastic tube and a spanner.....(take the tube back into the reservoir)....job jobbed.
Any of the ones that you run off a compressor. Usually around 25 quid. They make life so much easier.
given your recent trial and tribulation with the cush drives and rear sprocket......are you sure its not the process you are doing rather than shit tools?
I just received this one in my quest to find the final air bubble which I’m convinced is lurking in my front pipes. Haven’t tried it yet though. https://www.xlmoto.eu/motorcycle-ac...essed-air_c2389/jmp-brake-bleeder_pid-7223501
109 euro’s jabus For that I just pull the lever in as hard as I can and cable tie in place leave over night, job jobbed.
I never sure when a tradesman blames tools whether that’s the case, from experience it’s usually the tradesman.
As Glen mentioned, the ones that run off compressed air are best. Never been really satisfied with the hand pump type. Tbh, unless there's a particularly stubborn air lock or it's a fresh system bleed, bleeding by hand always gets a better feel at the lever. We use our air powered one, but without air connected as it gives a large reservoir to bleed the old fluid into cleanly while bleeding by hand.
Bled the clutch on the monster with an old piece of clear plastic pipe with a schraeder aloe poked up the end. Worked a treat.
I don't have a compressor, I would like one but all my power tools are fairly new and are electric/battery units. It would cause a lot of unnecessary duplication and can't really be justified. What's the view like up there on the professional moral high ground? I'm not blaming my tools, I just want a bloody brake fluid set because I can't be bothered feckin' about with old bottles, syringes and tubes; I'm tooo old and lazy! Hands up for a free cigar if ANY of us have not bought something off of ebay/Amazon/Gumtree that didn't turn out to be cheap, fragile and useless? You're a cheeky one; but I STILL like you. I look forward to your future posts so that I may pass suitable comments...
I have a 'Mityvac MV8500 Elite Automotive Hand Vacuum Pressure Pump Brake Bleeder Kit' which was @£70 when I brought it a couple of years ago, but in my opinion worth it. I prefer it to using my compressor powered one because of the noise. HOWEVER, I've just seen the price of them now: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mityvac-...335989?hash=item46ac8879f5:g:uqEAAOSwV79dKKDX Nasher.
To clarify, I find the Mityvac ideal for anything on Bikes, partly because it feels more controlled, or even maybe just a caliper change on cars. But any more extensive work on a car such as a complete fluid change I do still use the old Compressor powered one I have to save my old hands pumping away for too long. Nasher.
+1 for the "Mityvac" I went for the cheaper version.. can't remember what I actually paid for it but a quick google gave me this link.. https://www.louis-moto.co.uk/artike...ition/10010766?filter_article_number=10010766 Seems to get crap ratings there but I've recently done mastercylinder, lines and calipers on my blade and there was zero colourful language used... unlike when I bought a cheap sh*tty, f*cking, crappy ebay pile of turd
Genuinely tge clear silicone tube spanner and a jar is all you need for the rear in most Ducati’s that really is all about technique and just as viable with tge above kit
