Took my bike on a warm day to work. My brake pedal had no pressure. parked the bike and rode to work. When I got home searched and found yours and few other videos. Blead the old fluid that was orange in color and topped up with new clear DOT3 I had for my car. Will try it for a week and see how it is. if I am not satisfied. I will change it to DOT4. It took 30 min for me. May be I will do better on time going forward. Thanks Andrew

the only difference in DOT3 and DOT4 is boiling point of the fluid. For normal day to day use DOT3 works just fine. Thats what I use in my bikes. If you loose pressure again you may have a bad brake line or master cylinder

Thank you for the advise, Tito.

What size tube do you use on the caliber to capture old fluid?

[@ebay111978]

I believe it is 1/4"

I thought your supposed to start on the caliper furthest from the MC...

Very helpful, thanks alot

What about rear brake mate?

[@ebay111978]

Rear brake process is exactly the same as front. Just pump the rear brake pedal, hold it down, release caliper nipple, tighten it and let go of the brake pedal. Repeat until you feel a strong pedal.
