Ross Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Fitted my hand guards. But accidentley (i say that loosley) undone a bolt holding on my brake hoses to my fluid container. And have no pressure in my front brake lever. So im guessing i have to now bleed my front brake? I have to front calipers so do i bleed one at a time? Also the bleed nipples look pretty old and knackered, so im going to WD40 it up and hope it doesnt snap off . Just gotta pinch the 8ml ratchet fron work. Also on my throttle its tight against the hand guard so its not twisting back to idle. So going to space it out with a few washers, will this sort the issue) Cheers, a rather un-mechanically minded wannabe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megawatt Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Hi Ross. Well done for having a go yourself, but it sounds like you don't have sufficient knowledge yet to be working on brakes and throttles. Get a good mate involved, buy a workshop manual or take it to a mechanic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted March 7, 2019 Author Share Posted March 7, 2019 The hoses were right in the way of were i needed to connect my hand guards so had to move them out the way a bit. My dad is going to help me bleed them tonight. But the bleed nipple does look lik its not going to budge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megawatt Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Put some penetrating fluid or WD on it and leave it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
