I have a friend who's trying to revive his 07 after long storage. I'm assuming air in both the brake and clutch lines after 2 years. No brakes at all, and clutch engages abruptly after initial release. Fluid is full in both reservoirs.
OK please correct me if I'm wrong. To bleed air out of brake line, release bleed valve while compressing lever, tighten when lever touches grip. Release lever, and repeat process until fluid comes out of bleed valve? (I've only done this on a car)
On clutch, I would assume the same process, but not sure wear bleed valve is.
I'd appreciate any input, the rest of the bike seems fine accept low tire pressure. Any other things that might need to be checked? Dry storage, 5-10 engine warm ups over the 2 years I'm told...original gas....(Not good)
Thanks!
