What order do you bleed hanbrake setup?

I just installed the full throttle adapter and I need to bleed it. I know with cars you start with the bleeder furthest away from the master and work to the master, but what about when you put the handbrake adapter on?

Do I pump the foot brake and bleed the rear caliper or do I pump the handbrake and bleed the rear caliper or even the master? Help me out...

just open the bleeder on the caliper and pump the hand brake till some fluid comes out then just put your finger over the bleeder and keep pumping ,your finger will let the fluid out and not let the air in....

pick up a couple speed bleeders through parts unlimited they have a built in check valve that doesn't allow air back into the system, loosen the bleeders a quarter turn and pump away untill no air bubbles are left then tighten the bleeders and your set, they go for like 16 bucks a pair and are well worth it, i have them on all the brakes on my 05r6 for changing fluid in a hurry from doin stoppies and now for the HB setup

Re: What order do you bleed hanbrake setup?

Took care of it last night. I used an air bleeder. I just plumbed a valve into an extra reservoir cap I had and the bleeder uses compressed air and brake fluid in tank that bleeds it for you. It took all of five minutes, first I opened the caliper bleeder until fluid came out and then I did the master. Now it is money..:YEAH
