Clutch bleeder

[gsjohn]

Can someone tell me where the clutch bleeder is on an 1150GS. I can't find it and I don't have a manual. Thanks :thumb

right below the seat...it should be zip tied just inside of the helmet lock....it's in a black foam sleve....

Thanks.

OK, the bleeder has no bleeder valve on it. It is capped off. Has anyone used a "Speedbleeder", or any other bleeder valve, and if so, what size would fit an 02 R1100GS?

Yes, I have installed a speed bleeder on my 1150gs clutch....

It's a pain to install, since one of the joints is apparently installed with locktite...

I got the right size speed bleeder from my BMW dealer...it's the same as either the front or the rear calipers...but I don't remember which....I'm guessing, but I think its the same as the front....I replaced them all at the same time.... a few years ago....

Thanks, I need to make a trip to my dealer. This will be a good excuse.

i just bought the speed bleeders for the brakes and used one of the old bleed valves from the front on the clutch, i only plan to do it every other year anyway..........
