still not sure....which one is it...... is it the bleeder on the right towards the rear of the bike or the bleeder on the left to the front of the bike...
 
If it were me, I'd do this :

If the brake lever is soft do the brake lever procedure.

If the pedal is soft do those procedures .
 
The bleeder valve for the center rear piston is the center valve, not the one on the right hand side. If you find that the rear brake is mushy after bleeding this valve you might need to just bite the bullet and get the whole system flushed. How old is the bike and/or when was the last time that the brake fluids were changed?
 
W O W what a differance brakes have been bled (complete fluid replacement) and run in and i can say EBC HH brakes are the best..Ive used these in the wet and in the dry Ultimate stopping power ...yay
thanks guys brakes are back to the way they should be.....YAY...cheers again guys
