Default Great Info. for those that DON'T like flushing brakes

I found this a while back and was posting it to a clutch/hydro. issue thread and thought it may be of interest to others.

Especially those bleeding/flushing these brake systems.

"Brake fluid is possibly the single most neglected component of the automobile."

I guess that's true, judging by what came out of my F1's brake lines when I drained them for the first time a few days ago:

I'm really glad I rode it as little as I did in the few months I've had it. Looks like it should have been downgraded from "commuter" to "project" right from the start
