[QUOTE="infrared, post: 1472122, member: 68615"] Jeykash, There is only one correct process for bleeding the rear brakes, and it starts with bleeding a front brake caliper. Lots of posts here, for that fix. Speedbleeders.com can really help, making it into a one-guy job. They have a fluid catch bag that helps a lot, too. If you have ABS brakes, you can even run the ABS pump, using a jumper, but that step is optional. It will help you move more brake fluid if you let the brake pedal snap up freely each time, instead of letting the pedal come up slowly. Just sidestep the depressed pedal, instead of raising your foot (which is too slow). Brake pedal pivot lubrication should be done regularly on a schedule, IMHO. It would help us to help you if you put your FJR year and model in your signature, or with your avatar. [/QUOTE]
