Default RE: Help with Steel lines please..

Use a turkey baster to remove the fluid from the resivior, remove old lines, you will get brake fluid on stuff so be careful. Install new lines. Fill master cylinder and resivior, start bleeding one at a time. It's hard to do the left hand side by yourself so maybe get someone to help. Open the bleeder, squeeze and hold brake lever. Close bleeder, release lever. Repeat until no air comes out of either side. Watch the resivior to make sure you dont run it dry and have to start over again with the bleeding. Hose bike off with water to get all the brake fluid off of things. Enjoy the new lines.
