Thanks for the I information on this. Bought a Silverline vacuum pump from eBay and getting to grips with it now on my MTS 1200. (The cheapest were Chinese suppliers and never quite sure what and if anything will turn up.) The Silverline pump came with several adapters to fit the bleed nipple, didn’t get on very well with the one that should fit, but just done the front brakes fitting the plastic tube to the bleed nipple directly and much easier. Might try doing the clutch again now I’ve got the hang of it.

Great it worked out for you Simon. Sometimes the simple option is best.

Why not just pump the clutch or brake lever? No need for an external vacuum pump

[@stephaniestaceyleberreanne6169]

Nice video. It could be good to upload a video on how to do it without a bleed pump (because it’s as quick as with a pump, it’s just a different technique) for people that don’t have one. Anyway, the only thing I’d do differently would be to put the towel first and then open your fluid reservoir as sometimes a drop can fall from the lid and it ALWAYS fall on the worst spot ever... Otherwise great video! Thanks, and thanks for the pump link man.

Nice, thanks!

[@DarrylSheather]

No problem!

[@dg1593]

When you did the master cylinder, did you wait till you saw the new fluid and no bubbles like the other?

[@DarrylSheather]

Yep but it's really quick as you are taking it straight from the master cylinder.

Great vlog my friend i just subscribed.i own a Pentigale V-4 the slave is behind the fairings, I'm hoping i can bend the tubing to avoid having to do that job. Wish me luck. Freddy Fuss Vancouver Washington 😎

[@DarrylSheather]

Link for bleed pump?

[@DarrylSheather]

The seller I purchased from doesn't have them currently. Although they are a fairly generic Chinese pump kit from eBay.

Brake fluid for clutch fluid?

[@DarrylSheather]

Yes, it's a hydraulic system the same as the brakes.

[@Rydrdg]

@@DarrylSheather thanks for confirming

[@Nowherenotime]

Articulate the clutch lever , master is still holding shit fluid . less stress on cup seals in Master cylinder for clutch
