And then there were three

Did the brake flush today at the local BMW tech day, a precursor to a rider training day.
I had flushed the back when I did the peg lowering kit.
But the front fluid looked like Pepsi coming out !
If they have ever been bleed in the last 25 years it wasn’t often :eek:

Oh - back to maintenance stuff got a moment , so when I was out looking for information about bleeding the brakes, it referred to the BMW brake bleeding tool required - I blindly bought it - without actually looking at the bike.
DUH !! Normal bleeders on All the calipers :rofl:

Yesterday I was looking for the bleeder for the clutch and it was No Where to be found... - I did manage to cast an eye on the Clutch slave - with a banjo bolt on one side - two lines going to it so one Must be to the bleeder but where the Heck is it !!

Another job i'll spend hours looking for how to do it and 30 minutes doing it :p - well at least the first time !
 
On the S bike? Umm 22 years ago.

Brain has no recollection unfortunately. 🤦‍♂️

Let me check notes…

Ah!

The clutch bleed nipple for a BMW R1100S is on the end of a hose behind the main frame member, in front of the rear wheel on the left side. The hose is hard to see, but you can feel for it by reaching your fingers around the frame below the body work and above the left foot peg. Pull the hose out in the open to find it.
