which vacuum pump for beeding brakes
Want to change my brake fluid and want to use the vacuum method.
Which brand would you recommend that is not too expensive?
I am not a mechanic so do not want to spend too much $$$ since I do not do this often. Thanks

The "Mighty Vac" is a useful and versatile set up .... and I believe that it comes in a couple of different configurations ...plastic assy .. metal also. Here's a link to Harbor Freight

I have this one and have used it for brakes on the bike and also for oil changes on the car. Great all around tool with great capacity

I used to use the motive pressure bleeder on my cars and tried to adapt it to the HD but did not have any luck. the MV is the way to go (or one of its clones)

If you have a compressor I would recommend http://www.harborfreight.com/brake-f...der-92924.html
I have one and it works quite well.
