You might look into “speed bleeders”, they will dramatically improve your fluid changing efforts.

Good one buddy and very handy to watch as I have had to replace the front master cylinder piston with a new kit on my ZX 14 and that job was an easy one but I did not know If I could bleed the brakes just on my own rather than getting a friend to push the lever so cool as video buddy from Roland Keith.

No problem, certainly and easy job you can do yourself 👍

Hi have done the plugs get the proper tool it's straight forward it's the fairings that seems tricky. 👍

Hi there , thanks for the video , i read a few years ago that you couldn't change the brake fluid as it messed with the abs so it had to be done in the Kawasaki dealers so that's what i did , have you not had any problems , was i being blagged ?

[@cjrides.1]

Hi, no thats not true, plenty of people do it. At some point i want to change the brake lines and i was thinking maybe it might mess with the abs pump and it would have to be plugged into a dealers diagnostic machine and reset, but ive been reliably informed thats also not true, i can change the brake lines and bleed as normal. Kawasaki’s own service manual tells you how to bleed the brakes which is what i followed, its very simple and no different to bleeding the brakes on any other vehicle. Hope this helps 👍

Easier with a vaccuum hand pump sucking it through and quicker. 👍😉

[@cjrides.1]

I’ll definitely do that next time 😂
