Kees, this is not a rare occurrence in a BN1, stop and take a look
at the BN1 front wheel cylinder layout. If the brakes are not de
adjusted there is an air pocket in the wheel cylinders above the
height of the bleed screw. The air will be very difficult to bleed
out as it is trapped. I have advised many to do this and they found
an immediate improvement in the bleeding process and improvement in
pedal firmness. <br>

As remarked before, it is generally a good idea to adjust back
your drum brakes and push back the calliper pistons (using e few
small wedges between pads and discs) to minimise the volume in
the brake cylinders and callipers if the bleed nipples are
positioned in such a way that air can remain trapped in the
cylinders or callipers, although this is a fairly rare
occurrence.<br>
