what did you do with your fazer today ?

[Grahamm]

Do you have access to a vacuum brake bleeder, it is as you have found out a pain trying to do it without one.

Nope, nor a syringe

What I've had to do was literally just undo each connector with kitchen roll ready to catch any spillage, then let it drain into a bottle before doing the next one. (Oh and then wrap the banjo bolt in a ziplock plastic bag and wrap an elastic band around it in case there's any fluid not yet drained!)

I'm still having problems with the screw connectors, I've been spraying them all day with penetrating oil and I'll give then another try in a day or two.

If that doesn't work, I'm going to pack tin foil behind them and try with a heat gun.

When finished and the brakes work again take the bike out and get the ABS to kick in a few time to allow it cycle the fluid through the ABS unit.
There's a test routine on the FZ6 which is designed to pump the fluid through the ABS system, hopefully after that and a bleed it'll be ok.

I changed the screws on the Master Cylinder Cap, see Picture

I might do that if I can't get any JIS screwdrivers :thumbup
