It's a bitch without a mity vac.
But It can be done . You need to start at the master and make sure you get pressure at the bleeder and the banjo.
Then bleed at the clutch .
Sometimes you gotta go back and forth from top to bottom. Make sure you put the cap back on while bleeding and don't run the resovoir dry!
Or just go out and get a mity vac

I'll say it can be done. Buy the time you setup, then clean up and I mean placed back in the kit box; I can walk up to that bike with one said nipple size box end wrench, a Poise pad and have at it. The joke is the soakit you need some fancy titty sucking machine to do the job. OK, maybe 2 Poise is pads. I was conservative. Dual discs. I thought we were bleeding the rear end for those anal retentives.
