after a little research on speed bleeders web site it would seem that the size you would require is 3/8 x 24...They have a special one for our beloved H-D's...

Speed Bleeders . . .the only way to go.
I'm a retired mechanic. Wish they had Speed Bleeders 20 years ago.
These things should be stock on all Harleys. Then nobody could complain about bleeding brakes.
Changing the fluid is this easy.
1. Install the bleeder.
2. Attach the hose and bag (be sure to buy this when you buy the bleeders)
3. Open the master cylinder and start pumping and filling until all the dark fluid is in the bag.
You guys can keep your vacs and pumps and syringes and ...? I'll keep the bleeders.
Take my word for it. Try them and you'll be sold like I am.
