It's supposed to go in the plastic pot at the other end of the lines
I'm paranoid about spilling that stuff. My bike looks like it's having keyhole surgery when I do the brake fluid as I've got towels covering anything that could get splashed with it.

... a big syringe to push or pull the fluid. I can't see any leaks after clamping the lever overnight. I always do that to check my work. Keep any other suggestions coming.

Re: Suggestions? Help?
Sounds almost like this pistons are retracting to far, but no reason they should. Indeed strange. The only other thing I would try is unbolting them brake units from the fork and holding the up higher than the master cylinder while you bleed them again.
Twin lines?

Suggestions? Help?
... No visible leaks from banjos etc, so I released the lever which had pressure, left it for a few mins while i finished the chain tension and a few other things then tried the lever - no pressure.

... bad - i just hope they are right - they should be as i couldn't tighten them any more physically and the links move with the same movement as the other 'proper' ones. Still a PITA. :^

Re: Helicopter Crash
I saw that footage. Thats terrifying. 2000 ft in 10 seconds or less
The blades separated from the helicopter - no second chances from that one.
I assume there are other makes of helicopter or can they contract other choppers to get you off the rig?
Stay safe fellas

Re: Marmite Machine
Fair point Perks ands I realise the manufacturers have not designed them to compete against each other but as a potential customer they do compete for my hard earned and for me at least I wouldn't consider a H2 at its current price. North of 20k there are too many MORE special bikes available IMO.
