- This video will show you the easiest and cheapest way to flush your motorcycle’s old brake fluid and bleed any air out of the brake lines. This is a very quick procedure and should only take about 20 minutes. After watching this, you'll know exactly how to bleed motorcycle brakes by yourself.
Although I'm bleeding the brakes on my Yamaha R3 in this video, the procedure is applicable to most motorcycles.

Man this video is a master piece. It was exactly what I needed. I can see all the hard work you put into it and I appreciate it. Great video man.
Thank you! I'm happy the video helped you!
nicely done!
Excellent video, thank you!
Top notch explanation with super handy hints. Thanks
Thanks so much for this! I'm on my Ls and I did a hard brake the other day because someone was speeding and had to press the brakes real hard and noticed a bleed today! Gonna check it out. Wish me luck!
My guy, this is coming in handy, my breaks feels crap now and I have practically no rear fluid left, TIME TO CHANGE THEM!
Really great video! Just got my R3 and I've never changed brake fluid before, you really helped me out with this one 💖
Good video man!
Thanks bro - I appreciate it
thanks , i will do that to my 2016. i have that same bike, same color, only the muffler is flat black
Thanks man! your a god! Hahaha
More Ford Probe movies please
So good brake fluid should look clear and not yellowish? Cause I purachase some at cycle gear they recommend me for my 2017 yamaha r3 and it's clear looking in the bottle but my bikes look yellowish
Exactly, new brake fluid will look almost clear (maybe a slightly yellow tint to it) but old fluid will look amber or brown
My man! i just bought a 2020 R3 last June! what helmet is that on the table?
It's a Scorpion EXO R420 - I bought it as my first helmet and it served me well
@@jeffycr3169 hows the wind noise at highway speeds? I got a Simpson speed bandit for $300 but the wind noise is so damn loud i need earplugs
@kade272 The wind noise really wasn't too bad, especially considering the price of the helmet, but I've since upgraded to an Arai Defiant-X. I think regardless of the helmet you wear, earplugs are probably good for highway riding in general.
Why do some videos show people pump the brake a few times then open and close the bleeder? Is there a reason that the bleeder cannot stay open the entire time?
Pumping multiple times to build up pressure and then opening the bleeder valve to release the fluid is a perfectly good way of doing it, so long as you close the valve before letting off the brake. This is done to prevent any air from getting back into the hose and brake lines. Submerging the end of the hose in brake fluid in the bottle negates the need to do this, because the fluid in the bottle blocks air from re-entering the system.
@@jeffycr3169 Thank you for the response! I just finished bleeding them a few minutes ago with the help of your video so thank you thank you for posting this. Now I have to see if how to go about fixing the leak coming from my right fork. 😩
Great video, thank you!
