R100RT No Pedal
I'll try it. Sounds like somebody discovered that air can get trapped if the bleeder plug isn't at the top. Hard to imagine but I'll give it a try.

Unsafe really. I am now going to try siphoning the brake fluid with a syringe tool.
By the way, I only have about 3/16-inch pad thickness left. Could this be part (or all) of my problem?
Manual talks about pads being OK down to the color line. I don't see a color line.

Lettering for starter, horn etc has worn off handle bar area
I have thought about lettraset with a coat of varathane but I don't think it would survive the first good rainstorm.
