Thanks for the reply!

My rear brake is fine its the front that is giving me problems.

I will keep at it a few more times.

Another quick question how long would you say is too long once the brake fluid is open? I poked to holes in the foil seal and last bled them on thursday I wont get a chance to do it again until monday. Would that be too long?

Brake fluid absorbs moisture so it depends how much moisture is in the air in your area and if you keep the cap on tight or not. But I don’t use previously opened brake fluid if it is over a month old. Some people might go longer.

How often do you change the brake fluid in the bike?

Follow the shop manual recommended interval...... I believe that's annually.

For a few dollars from the giant woman you can get a brake fluid tester that measures the amount of moisture in brake fluid. That way your brakes won't lead to breaks.
