EZE Brake Bleeder review
« on: December 09, 2010, 09:45:48 PM »

I use a vacuum pump to flush and bleed my motorcycles' brake fluid. However I have seen this brake bleeding system offered for sale recently and I have heard that using a similar system is how most professional motorcycle mechanics bleed brake systems. This link shows how you how to use the EZE bleeder and they recommend the product. After reading the review, it must be easier to use this bleeding system than to read about it, but here it is. You decide.

I don't know how much these cost, but I recently built my own from parts.  Two syringes from the Vet, some airline and quarter turn valves from the aquarium shop and an empty bottle.  I found the bleed valve leaked too much around the threads to make it work well, so I ended up doing it the more traditional way by opening and closing the bleed valve.  However I would highly recommend getting a syringe and some airline tube simply for removing the old fluid from and putting new fluid into the reservoir.  I used Motul 660 at the recommendation of Zero and found it to be very very good.  (it would want to be for the cost).
