Im about to replenish the brake and clutch fluid on the Falc using a vacuum pump/ bleeder and my question is.............
Do I need to fix the levers in the operational position to ensure the ports are open?
This little beaut should pull it all through from an 'open' bleed nipple.
have used pressure bleeders in the past,some systems need the lever in the operating position,some dont.
Cant search in download manual, laptop not playing

Try both. If no fluid when closed, try opening. It's only air and can be re-bled if things go wrong. Very unlikely you'll do any damage. I use a 100mm syringe to pull fluid though. I find it works better as the trapped air is quick to move under vacuum. 

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.
