Make easy bleeder location for fitting behind fairing?

[Yaesu]

The biggest problem bleeding the brakes on my 2008 ST-1300 is getting to the bleeder behind the fairing on the right side. I was thinking of adding a section of brake line from the block with the bleeder to a more accessible place, such as the opening directly below, near where the oil fill opening is located. Has anything like this been done?

Seems like a solution looking for a problem.
How often do you bleed your brakes?
Most of us only do it once a year, or every other year.
Taking off the red dress once a year doesn't seem like an issue, I don't mind looking around "under the hood" once in a while. It's good to know it's all ok in there, for your confidence and also to catch potential issues early.
No, to your question -- I'm not aware anyone has done that.

IIRC, @Igofar has posted numerous times that you can bleed the brake system correctly w/o removing the right side fairing. I forget what Larry said (I no longer have an ST) but I think you raise the gas tank, remove a bolt or two and pull the fairing out away from the frame along its top edge. Then that pesky bleeder is accessible. Maybe Larry will chime in.

The brakes can be bled in 30 minutes or less, without removing any Tupperware.
Trying to modify the bleeder route is just asking for trouble, and a pretty silly thing to do.
If the OP needs help with how to bleed the system he can always call me on the white courtesy phone.

Bleeder locations are designed so it's at a place where air would rise to. You would not place a caliper bleeder at the bottom of the caliper.

It would work for replacing the fluid, although not ideal for removing air. Personally for the cost and effort I wouldn't bother since replacing the fluid is an annual/bi-annual process and these kinds of maintenance tasks gives me something to do during the long cold winters.
