Another vote for speed bleeders. I now flush my brakes on my 2010 ultra every other oil change. They also make changing the brake pads a snap!

I'm trying to find speed bleeders for my 2012 Heritage. Their website doesn't list any for my model year??


Any other ideas ?

Exactly.

Although that picture of the one way valve from Dennis Kirk is interesting...especially for folks that don't yet have speed bleeders. Looks like the same concept, just hope its not built china cheap to where the internals fail and allow air to get back in the line.
