Re: Suzuki gt750 master cylinder
Worked for me too, apparently air bubbles are much happier going uphill
Look, my paintwork hasn't got "Fish scales" they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".

Re: Suzuki gt750 master cylinder
Have you tried clamping the brake line just after the master and cracking the banjo to bleed the master first?

Re: Suzuki gt750 master cylinder
Have you tried putting a cable tie as tight as poss around the brake lever and twist grip and leaving for 12 hours or so? Remove fluid cap and sit it back on top to prevent fluid absorbing moisture. It’s worked for me on a couple of bikes including kettle. Can’t remember what process is called but maybe worth a go.
