	Bill:

	How are you bleeding them, and what kind of fluid are you using?

	I tried a vacuum bleeder with DOT5, and it was a miserable failure. The DOT5
it seems, is too prone to trap air for this method.

	On the other hand, using the traditional pump and hold method, the brakes
bled just fine, and I couldn't be happier. No trapped moisture to cause rust,
and it won't harm paint if I spring a leak. Great stuff.

My M/C began leaking onto the servo.
