Worked for me too, apparently air bubbles are much happier going uphill

Have you tried clamping the brake line just after the master and cracking the banjo to bleed the master first?

[Frankibaby7]

hi I haven’t no because I have all aeroquips all round , but I did bleed all the banjos, still massive air in the system , it seems the gt750 is a historical pain to bleed , was going to use it for my week off boo hoo ahh well another week then cheers for the reply’s guys .

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.
