If you drain your front brake system how do you go about re-pressurizing the system?

Fill the master back up with fluid then bleed it. I find the only sure way to get a firm lever is to use a mitey vac type bleeder.

bleeding is done by pulling in the lever then releasing the pressure by cracking open the bleeder screw on the caliper. repeat this process till there is solid fluid coming from the bleed screw. it will take a little time. and make sure to keep and eye on the fluid level in the reservoir . i always bleed the clutch lever side brake caliper first them move to the front brake lever side.
