Need some more help....
Does anyone have a vacuum bleeder for bike brakes? Can't get my rear brake to build up pressure. Took the whole assembly off and have been trying to bench bleed it, but it still hasn't worked. Really starting to tick me off!! Let me know if you guys have any helpful tips.

Yes I do Timex... I usually will let gravity take over then start working on finishing the bleeding off. So open one of the caliber screws and take the top off the master cylinder. Make sure you keep it full and wait till it starts to come out the open bleeder screw. Some Master cylinder have bleeder screws too but the other method should get you going. If you need my Vacuum/brake pump drop me a line. Tomorrow I will be at Kid Rock but if you let me know soon enough I will leave it on my front porch for you to use.

What do you need brakes for, I've never seen you do a stoppie on your real bike anyhow.......just use your feet. :YEAH
Thanks for the help today at work, I think it went well.
