Job done, started bleeding, all going great, until i must of run it out of fluid in the res. No lever at all & nothing coming out the calider bleed nipple. Whats the best way of sorting it for fucks sake. -- Nige, Land Rover 90 Yamaha R1 Range Rover Vogue
heheh - what a fucking cabbage i am, easy done tho, i checked it & it must have been the bleeding diaphram i saw..... Ta -- Nige, Land Rover 90 Yamaha R1 Range Rover Vogue
You really ought to GAMI, with your record. Bung it out to SWK. You forgot the compulsory "Buy a Mityvac" there. Makes that sort of thing a POP.
IU have done it through two res full & still no lever. No bubbles coming out, but fluids going through the system. Must be the master cylinder? -- Nige, Land Rover 90 Yamaha R1 Range Rover Vogue
Done it! The last go i was gonna have & a load of bubbles came through Cheers -- Nige, Land Rover 90 Yamaha R1 Range Rover Vogue
Done now, but **** me, what a pudding I am Just started it up to get it washed down the road & it was running rough as ****, warmed it up & gave it a htrashing, fine now. Shit in the carbs? -- Nige, Land Rover 90 Yamaha R1 Range Rover Vogue
Its ALWAYS shit in the carbs, in this case probably just some very stale fuel in the float bowls. Its generally a good idea to drain the float bowls when putting a bike into hibernation. Did you check for water in the bottom of the tank ?, if the fuel outlet from the tank is on the same side as the sidestand (most are) this can cause water in the carbs when parked and clear up when upright.
Nope mate its buggered. Look I know you get so much grief from ebay punters so I'll offer you a tenner and a packet of polo mints. You know it makes sense Boxerboy

It's too steep to be pushed back up, so I needed to start it up, which means holding it on the back brake while I do it. So, right foot, pump - nothing. Pump, pump. Still nothing. PUMP, PUMP, PUMP and Ah! I have a back brake. I've only done 900 miles since I've had it so far...
