I have just fitted an underslung rear caliper bracket on my 749R and I cannot bleed it so it looks like I will have to lift the caliper as suggested to bleed it.

Cannot be as bad as the 2 days I tried to bleed the brakes and clutch after I fitted the cycle cat riser kit. I could not get any fluid to come through even using a hydraulic bleed kit from a local dealer, after taking the system completely to bits, guess what it was !!!!!!!

Yes, the plastic reservoirs had plastic bungs in them that I had failed to spot when fitting them, 15 minutes later the job was finished !!!
