In order for the zip tie method to work properly the small holes in the bottom of the reservoir need to be the highest point in the system. The larger of the holes supplies brake fluid to the system, the smaller hole is the return port and is generally where you will see the last remnants of air bubbles coming from when bleeding the master cylinder. Typically on the jiffy stand with the handlebars turned left. The other option you have is to bench bleed the master cylinder before installing it back onto the handlebar.
