hey guys

how do you bleed brakes on a quad (front brakes)............. im pritty good with this sort of "profanity removed". ive bleed the brake in my car and on all of my bikes but this just doesnt want to build pressure in the line (it builds a little but its just not good enough)

ive tried everything ............

please help tell me how to do the "profanity removed"

bleed it from the bottom ya nutter.Pump fluid into the nip at the bottom and bubbles will appear in the resie.make sure you tighten the nip after each pump so no air gets in.
Or ask chopper

Took me ages when I put twin braided, I left it overnignt with a bit of velcro holding the brake lever and let most of the air bubbles come to the top naturaly, worked great in the end
