Default Newbie that needs help with bleeding brakes!

Hi,
I'm new to the group and have a 2012 CBR600F, I was wondering how to go about bleeding the brakes? I've not dealt with ABS combined brakes before, and not sure how to go about it!

Get and follow factory manual! It’s a 5-step procedure and everything has to be done in proper order. Critical step is SMC - secondary master cylinder that uses front brake-caliper to activate rear one.

Welcome to the forum, can't seem to find a link to the later workshop manual.
It would appear that the similar generation RR (600 & 100) have the same system... maybe
If so, this might help

Thank you i'll give it a look. I did find a service manual for a 600f Hornet which is of the same year. Hopefully it'll shed some light on it.
