Questions & Answers
After pressing the blue button, tighten the bleeder in the gold slot with a straight blade screwdriver until it is snug. It isn't supposed to spin in any way.
On KYB forks, the gold version is incompatible. When in-stock, this item is listed almost as a color choice. The threads on the gold ones for Showa forks (extra collar/ring) are different, in fact. which isn't depicted in the photographs Item 11 is required for most Yamaha/KYB forks. 0095 (silver) confirmed it with Motion Pro over the phone on March 13th, 20.
I'm pretty sure they'll fit all Showa and Lyb forks, but I wouldn't use this style of bleeder because I think it's a bad design that can't be tightened well enough.
I'm not sure if the website verifies that the item is compatible with your bike. They're effective, and I enjoy using them.
Selected User Reviews For Motion Pro 11-0095 Silver M5 x 0.8 Micro Bleeder
On my 2016 WR250R, it was a breeze to get in. The instructions say to rotate the fork tube until the bleeder can be threaded in, but mine were in a good spot and I didn't have to do that. I simply tightened my hand and then tightened it some more. I lubricated the threads with super lube and o- ring and everything appears to be in working order; however, when bleeding the forks, remember to remove all of the weight from the front tire. Frequently bleed them! We'll see how well this product holds up against my fork seals, as I bleed after every ride.
First and foremost, let me state my case. Despite the seller's and other sellers' assurances that the product will fit the Honda CRF105R, the product has been returned. They won't be able to fit through the door. After attempting to thread the bleeder in correctly several times, I've realized that the problem isn't the thread depth or the correct thread for the front forks. The issue is with the thickness of the bleeder's thickest part. The OEM bleeder screw is housed in a U-shaped or semi-circular cutout in the top of the fork. This is the point at which the product isn't appropriate. The aftermarket bleeder collides with the U shape cutout and tries to cross thread, while the bleeder itself begins to cut into the fork's U shape portion. THIS PRODUCT WILL NOT FIT IN THE SAME MANNER AS THE ORIGINAL BLEEDER. MANUFACTURING - JUST TO FIT THE PRODUCT, (*GRINDING* THE U SHAPE TO A LARGER DIAMETER) Then, after attempting to make it work under the assumption that it was simply a tight tolerance, I tightened it even more, hoping that it would eventually seat with a little rubbing. My assumptions were incorrect. br>br>I make a living working on automobiles. I'm well-versed in the industry's gimmicks. Every week, I commute by bicycle. br>br>It goes without saying that I was disappointed. Nobody wants to grind their bike down to get a $13 bleeder screw to fit.

These have handled some serious high-speed suspension bottom outs without blowing out, as some other brands have claimed. So far, they've proven to be extremely durable on my 2019 Yamaha YZ450FX! I'm talking about a hard nose landing from a height of 20 feet that caused me to crash. I'm pretty sure that's the ultimate test, but I'm using factory oil levels, so increasing oil volume could result in higher pressure spikes than intended. They've been great for about 6 months now in terms of stock.
It's a snap to keep your shocks in good working order. Several times a week, my bicycles ate in and out of our truck trailer. As a result, I'm constantly bleeding the forks. It'll be simple now. I've heard that in the event of a collision, these could be thrown off. That would be nearly impossible on my bikes, as they are located beneath the handlebars. They are reasonably priced. If the first set fails, I have a backup set. After many hours of riding and loading and unloading cycles, they still haven't figured it out.
Read the reviews to see if yours is leaking oil; mine isn't. They're a little difficult to put together because you'll need a screwdriver that's a little wider than normal because the slots for the head fit in such a small space; be wary of other brands that come in two pieces. If you have to use plyers to get the bottom half off, the threads will break. That was the primary motivation behind my purchase of this model. They're also quite small, and they fit nicely beneath the handlebars. I'll keep you updated if they start leaking oil.
These were a perfect fit for my DRZ 400. They appeal to me because they are both simple and effective; I frequently travel with my bike loaded in the truck, and I am convinced that bleeding the air out of my forks saved my fork seals.
It's an excellent suggestion. It's easier to install with a screwdriver than unscrewing aluminum screws every ride. Make sure you get the right size.
