REXX Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Is this a decent brake/clutch bleeder for the DIY person? It's only $32...pretty cheap. If not, what would y'all recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you getting it, and is that the model number for motorcycle brake bleeding? I couln't find that model number on the MityVac site and the brake bleeding stuff they had loooke like automotive --- too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 6820 like he's getting is shown on the MityVac webpage: Linky It's about half way down the page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exskibum Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Thanks, Keith, looks like I was on another path on that site -- not the hand vacuum pump path, but the path with all the brake bleeders. I guess they didn't cross reference to the page you linked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW - I picked up the only one offered at my local PepBoys (obviously not MC specific) and it works great on the Bird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunedain Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 It's a nice thingy but when you losen the bleeder screw do it just a little as this thing can litterally pul air passed the threads makiing it look like you got more air, and more air, and geesh more air. Barely open the bleeder bolt so you can hold vac on it without it bleeding down. Then depress the lever on the master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhanxx Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Jaws sells the Easy Bleed assist kit, basically tubes attached to a speedbleeder-like valve. Haven't tried it yet, but will this weekend, nice simple design at reasonable price. http://www.jaws-motorcycles.co.uk/birdservice2.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
