You're braver than I, deej. Not sure I could do it. I used to have a '95 CBR1000 that had a linked braking system. When you applied brakes to either the front or the back, it would actuate both sets of brakes. That thing had hoses all over it. I never liked the way it felt and there was no way I was going to try to bleed it. The KLX seems a lot simpler but I'm not super mechanically inclined so it may be best to leave it to the pros when mine are due.
Nice job btw. I love the detailing on the bike.
