oldgoat Posted June 6, 2010 #1 Posted June 6, 2010 anyone know where i can buy some for my 1984 venture? i have been working on my brakes. got the master from dingy here on this site. went out to use the mityvac.friend was helping he was going to do the back for me while i went to pick up some micky.d breakfast for us. i got back and he said hey man im sorry i couldnt get the vac to pump up? and i rounded off the back bleeder. i didnt get angry these things happen. but if he cant tell a 8mm wrench for god knows what he used? any way i know cant gett he mityvac to work on this back bleeder. i went to auto parts store napa.o,riley no help there. . so if anyone knows where to find some or has some for sale let me know. also can you use the speed bleeder ones with a mityvac? if i dont get these brakes done soon the bike goes up for sale.
Condor Posted June 6, 2010 #2 Posted June 6, 2010 As long as you have to replace the bleeders why not go this direction. 8125L is the stock number you need. 4 total. 3 for the brakes and one for the clutch slave... http://www.speedbleeder.com/
oldgoat Posted June 7, 2010 Author #4 Posted June 7, 2010 thanks everyone. just put on the master from dingy. going to try and figure out why the mityvac wont pull fluid through? it was working on the rear .until the friend rounded off the bleeder. i have only one thing left to do. if i cant get the brakes to work? its off to the stealer.or it goes up for sale.
dingy Posted June 7, 2010 #5 Posted June 7, 2010 Can you get the old bleeder screw out of the caliper? Gary
oldgoat Posted June 7, 2010 Author #6 Posted June 7, 2010 yep sure can. cant understand why this is such a hard thing to get done? the independent front i did that in like 5 minutes flat? got a good handle. and fresh fluid in that one that one alone will slow the bike down. but? i dont want to be doing over 30 mph and try to stop it with just that one. i think i might limp it about 4 miles to a shop here that will work on it for $65 per hour? said he wanted to rip the whole brake system down and look it over. could be around $250? have no clue what that includes? tomorrow im going shoping with dianne a friend of mine who had her ninja all busted up . shes looking at a yamaha vstar.650 i think? im thinking of maybe going that route myself in the near future.
bongobobny Posted June 7, 2010 #7 Posted June 7, 2010 I almost GUARANTEE you will not be happy with a 650!! Too small size wise and power wise. Your bleeders are ready for the post office...
