SPEED BLEEDERS® TAKE THE WORK OUT OF BRAKE BLEEDING

The Russell patented Speed Bleeder is a one-person brake bleeder screw that speeds up the job of purging old fluid and air from your newly replaced brake line. The Speed Bleeder has a unique check ball design which allows old fluid and air to be pushed out but closes between pumps, preventing the old fluid and air from re-entering the system. Here's how it works: Replace the original bleeder valve with the Speed Bleeder. Attach a drain hose to the Speed Bleeder to catch the fluid to be purged. Prime the new brake line with Russell's D.O.T. 5 Silicone Brake Fluid prior to installation using an eye dropper or small syringe. Install the line. Bleed the system by turning the Speed Bleeder 1/4 to 1/2 turn, pumping the brake lever continuously. Once solid fluid begins to flow from the screw, tighten the Speed Bleeder and the job is done. Simple. Easy. A real time saver. Speed Bleeders are available for stock and aftermarket calipers. See the motorcycle application chart for the correct part number for stock calipers.

FACTORY ASSEMBLED BRAKE LINE KITS

For enhanced braking power, durability, good looks and value, nothing beats the performance of Russell’s pre-assembled direct bolt-on Street Legal Brake Line Kits listed on pages 12-19. These kits meet the strict guidelines established by D.O.T. MVSS-106 for street driven motorcycles and are 50-state legal. Each kit features rugged clear coated 308 stainless steel braided –3 brake hose with a Teflon® inner liner, crimped-on plated end fittings, a junction block (depending on model) and all the necessary sealing washers. No special adapters or tools are required for installation. PLEASE NOTE: For the years 2000-03, a new rear brake line is now available which is a one-piece line. The junction block is an integral part of the assembly. Street Legal Kits are identified with a "DS" at the end of the part number. For earlier model motorcycles (1973-84), Russell offers Cycleflex pre-assembled brake lines for stock and custom length applications listed on pages 20-21. The same clear coated stainless steel braided hose and quality can be found in these kits.

· Rugged 308 stainless steel braided hose
· Teflon® inner liner eliminates brake line expansion for more braking power and a better brake lever feel
