Rear ATV foot brake bleeding the easy way!

[chunky0071]

Tools needed
1/8” clear hose 1’
50cc syringe found at local drug store.
This is the easiest way to bleed rear foot brakes with a remote reservoir. First remove your remote reservoir leaving the hose on the master cylinder. Remove the plunger from the 50cc syringe and insert in the master cylinder hose. Place your 1/8” hose on your bleeder nipple so that it is above the brake caliper this is very important that the hose is above the brake caliper. It will keep air from going back into the caliper. Open the bleeder nipple and fill the syringe with desired brake fluid. Reinstall the plunger and slowly push the fluid till there are no bubbles coming out of the brake caliper. When the bubbles stop keep pushing the fluid and close the bleeder. You have now flushed and bled your brakes.

I use the tube that is on the master cylinder the reason being you don't have air trapped in it. If you remove that hose when you put it back on you have to make sure and get the air out and check your brakes for air. The clear hose is for the brake caliper nipple to keep the air a way from the caliper.

The 50cc ones I use are also for feeding tubes I just pick them up at the drug store.
