FSE 450 rear brake...

[Vinny]

Couple of things;
My bike doesnt have a tach. Kind of disturbs me since I like to use as much of the motor as posible. Why dont this bikes have tachs ? Is it the weight ? or are they not really needed ?

I was replacing my rear brake line since it was leaking. It has a weird loop that makes it go really close to the exhaust and also makes it come under pressure when the suspencion fully compresses.
Anyway; put it back together . Now I cant seem to build pressure in the line. I placed a bleed kit on the rear disk end , started pushing the foot brake. I'm used to air coming out for a while and then brake fluid.
I did notice that the bolts that keep the line in place are hollow and have a hole on one side of them. Where they supposed to be facing a certain direction for the brake fluid to flow thru them ?

Any suggestions ?

Thanks. V.

I'll try the syrenge trick in the morning. Not sure how he was able to keep a good seal . Worth a try.
Thanks.

Worked perfect. Thanks for the info.

How about that tachometer question ?

What do you need a tacho for? Mine works but you cant read it when your hanging on for dear life.Just a gimmick IMO.Hour meter handy though.
