954 front brake can't bleed.
#1
954 front brake can't bleed.
just switched to steel braded lines.
I have the washers in place.
1. filled up the 15cc res, closed it
2. pumped 50 gazillion times
3. opened the bleeder valve
4. it won't suck in any fuild!
I've bled brakes at least 20 times, on several different bikes, but this one I can't figure out.
tried both different bleeder valaves, both sides, switch back and forth, leave valve open and pump, left res open and bleed. basically everything I could think of.
this ****** just won't budge.
and yes I have brand-new washers in place...2 on each side os the line on caliper side...and 3 up top at the master.
any suggestions?

leave the bleeder open and the res open and pump it will eventually start spitting fluid and if not read this thread

already read that link too, just was hoping I wouldn't have to take apart my MC.
...worst case, I was thinking about towing the bike next to the beach where there would be more gravity

I don't have a syringe so i'll just get my girl to blow on the bleedr...she's good at that.
...just hope there is no downsides to filling her mouth up with brake fluid.
