I received my Motio Pro bleeder today along with a new clutch lever for the Yam.
As far as ABS non ABS, the bleeding routine is the same.
Use the search tab to research brake bleeding on the st1300. Your statement could be confusing to some other members. The brake system on these bikes, whether ABS or Non ABS, is a linked system.If I were to bleed the front and rear breaks I do not think I am going to worry so much about what ever leftover fluid may be in the sharing system??
Don't use the Mity VacGreat thread.
Well I did all the fluids on mt ST today, that block drain was a pain. Clutch was easy.
Any way what do you guys do to stop air from getting sucked past the bleeder threads.
I spent a lot of time bleeding today have brakes but think there may be some air still.
I am using the service manual and a mity vac.

Sometimes the plastic hose isn't fitted tightly enough against the bleeder valve which allows air to enter between the bleeder valve and the hose. When this happens, I try a new section of hose that fits tighter to the bleeder valve.Great thread.
