Allen will help you out when he's up and about. In the meantime, slightly loosen the banjo bolt, that's the bolt where the brake fluid line goes into the reservoir at the handlebars and has the Louis Armstrong music coming from it. While loosening it, squeeze in the clutch lever, air bubbles and fluid will be released, tighten the bolt before releasing the lever. Do it a couple of times. It's better to have someone helping, you really need a third hand but you can get it done by yourself using your elbow as the extra hand, Graham
