Motorcycle Repair: 2005 HD Deluxe, fluid leak, bleeder


Question
I need to bleed my brakes on my '05 Deluxe and I have it lowered "slammed" as far down as I could go being I'm short. The brakes are feeling very spongy and I was wondering what the best way to go about it would be. I have a feeling I'm going to have to tip it back so I can drain everything. Any suggestions. Also, I have a '06 heritage and I had some work done to it. It will start sometimes and other times it just clicks and I have to push start it. Do you think its just a new battery I need? Thank you for any suggestions you can give. Heather

Answer
On your first bike. Pull the brake handle and crack the bleeder on the caliber. you will see brake fluid leak out. then close it and punp the handle. Keep doing this until they pump up. Make sure you dont let the master cylinder go dry.
On the second bike, have the battery tested. If you have a weak battery it will click
Good luck and happy riding
