Thanks everyone. I am going to buy the mityvac on Amazon.com this morning. I will have to wait for it but at $34 it won't hurt to much, plus I can then be able to check vacuums. My ST has a bunch of brake and clutch lines to bleed, and they say you can't get a vacuum pump to seal properly on them.
I friend wants to buy my NH and I want to change out the brake fluid before I sell it. I thought my brake fluid indicator was a darker yellow because the glass was faded. Now I know I've been negligent there, but the brakes always worked so well, I didn't to fool with it. I learned something. Oh and I will cover everything with pain nearby.

The trick is to keep an eye on it and not to let the level drop. -Kyle On Tue, May 1, 2012 at 10:56 PM, Pastor Ron <[email protected]> wrote: I am going to change the brake fluid in my NH. I went to two auto supply stores and they only had a fluid marked DOT 3 and DOT 4. Can I use that or do I have to go to Honda and get fluid for DOT 4 only? Also I am going to change out the fluid. The book says I can do it manually without a suction pump. Will I regret trying that manually. Most everyone recommends the pump. I have done it a number of times on cars, but motorcycles are different in that when you remove the lid, you lose the vacuum? Will the clutch lever push the fluid down without air?
