Long story short I had to disconnect my right front caliper to do some other work and now that it’s all back together I need to refill and bleed that brake line. First time doing this and to the best of my knowledge the only two ‘line ends’ I’ll need to work with are my right handlebar reservoir and the bleed valve on the caliper itself. Considering the caliper I took off are there any other parts on the bike besides these I need to be concerned about?
Now insofar as back bleeding vs. top down bleeding goes…I understand that since bubbles rise, only doing a top down bleed leaves open the possibility of leaving some bubbles in the vertical brake line. But since the bleed valve on the caliper is an inch or more above where the banjo bolt brake fluid lines comes in (on my bike anyway) you would have to do at least some top down bleeding to make sure all the bubbles escape from the caliper out the higher positioned bleed valve. Together these two ideas imply that it might be best to do both some top down and bottom up bleeding. Any thoughts?
Anybody have a somewhat educated idea of how quickly air bubbles rise in the vertical line between the caliper banjo bolt and the handle? If they rise slowly enough seems like it would be possible to bleed the whole thing by doing only a top down.

I ordered bearings for the front right side on my 450 and 2 bearings and 2 seals came in the pack one bearing and one seal are thicker then the other.I’ve never had to change bearings on a Yamaha before so I’m wondering if I got the right one.I changed a bearing on a quad before but it was one big one in the front hub.Wheel Bearing Kit – Front – WE301250 – EPI
Lol, so I am an owner of both now but it is crazy how much more traffic we have than the other forum! Hands down I love my grizz way more, but Im also comparing to a project brute. (Which seems to be the norm) I’ve been fighting fuel, electrical and now valve issues I think on that one. Maybe when I get it running I’ll sell it and buy another grizzly. Haha
We all might benefit from knowing each other a little better and where we come from. What does your work life look like? I’ll start it off. Here is my bench and my machine.

So i"ve been looking for a while, i found this 2013 Commander 1000 XT. Awesome machine , tons of power. Lots of room for me and the missus and the two dogs. Great all around machine untill it was time to take the boat out of the water. I have taken the boat out with the Grizz so i figured it would be no problem with the Commander "WRONG"
