Tried a great new way to bleed the brakes on my 200x out of desperation. Get a lube pump for an outboard motor, one that comes with an attachment for Yamaha outboards. You're gonna need the little Yamaha fitting. The little pump just so happens to screw into the top of a brake fluid container. Screw the "Yamaha" fitting into the hole in the caliper where the bleed screw goes. Then just pump the system full of fluid, holding the caliper as high as possible while you're undoing the lube hose and replacing the bleed screw, you should now be able to bleed the brakes as usual to get the remaining air out.

Now, is there an easy replacement for the fluid reservoir?
