Re: F650GS ABS front brake bleed

Hi Bozo, thanks for the reply. I have already bought one from eBay in the U.K., otherwise I would have bought one from Frank, as the site you suggested looked very good and I'm sure I will use it in the future and hopefully others read this and it helps them out. Thanks again mate, Alex.
