Richard, have you tried these, I swear by them (not at them)

They are a one way valve you replace (permanently) your existing bleeders with.

I forgot about these, and they do work Richard. I installed some when I changed the calipers over, make things very easy :good2: as Noel mentioned,

I have always found that the Yamaha masters are very hard to get going when the system is totally empty. So I reverse bleed a bit first so as to fill the master. With the speed bleeders that option is gone. I also use a bleeder bottle and put Teflon tape on the bleeders and you can leave them cracked and just pump fluid straight through..
