brake flush tools

[Houtman]

I the passed when I flushed the brakes I always used the Mityvac with good resulst.This time I used a different system on the advise of Arnon Noiman (remember him from Atlanta?)At home he uses a proffessional system using his compressor.As I did not want to spend $200 I went to Harbor Freight (NOT my favorite toolshop !!!) and bought for $30 their Central Pneumatic Brake Fluid Bleeder.We changed the fluid on my two CB1000,brakes and clutch and I found this a lot easier and better than the Mityvac system.Just connect it to your air compressor and it sucks the fluid out of the reservoir and than the bleeding nipples very quickly and no mess.Probably many of you already use this method but some of the newer "mechanics " on the forum might not know about this .Arnon Noiman stayed with us for 8 days and he is a great guy and a superb mechanic.Safe Riding John.

+1 thanks for posting this. I just used my Mityvac on the clutch side of my 95 CB1000 and about to replace the front brake lines w/some Galfer lines. This will be handy for that. As for CBX content, will be flushing the systems on my 79 also.
