mil Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Hi, I've just bought a 2015 4RT and love it! Just getting used to the bike at the moment. The front brake has air in it so I tried to bleed it at the weekend but it seems as you loosen the banjo to bleed through the nipple, fluid seeps out over the caliper - as the same bolt holds the banjo for the brake line. Any tricks or tips for this as it didn't seem an efficient or effective way to do this! Thanks for any help Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reggie Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 You should only be loosening the bleed nipple to bleed the front brake. Maybe your bleed nipple is seized in the banjo bolt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
