Want bleeding the brakes on your motorcycle to be an easy one man job? Replace the bleeder screws with a set of Speed Bleeders and your dreams will become a reality! Bleeding the brakes and changing the brake fluid will become one of the easiest maintenance jobs on the list. We also offer the Speed Bleeder Bag and Hose Kit that attaches to the bleeder screw and collects all the old fluid making this a no spill, super clean effort.
Introducing SPEED BLEEDER® brand checkvalve, the patented bleeder screw with the built-in check valve. It is truly a one-person bleeder screw. Once installed, it becomes a permanent part of the brake system. When it is time to bleed your brakes, you loosen the Speed Bleeder brand checkvalve 1/4 turn and pump your brake pedal. When the pedal is depressed the pressure generated opens the check valve letting air and brake fluid out of the end of the Speed Bleeder brand checkvalve. When you release the pedal and it returns to the up position, the check valve closes and prevents any air from reentering the system through the Speed Bleeder. When bubble free fluid is evident you close the Speed Bleeder brand checkvalve. In the closed position it works just like your stock bleeder screw and prevents any brake fluid from leaking out. It generally takes about 5 pumps to purge each caliper or wheel cylinder. That is all there is to bleeding your brakes. If at a later date you need to bleed your brakes, the patented thread sealing system makes it easy to open the bleeder screw to perform the bleeding operation. It is made of quality materials and it is economical.
Selecting the correct Speed Bleeder for your bike
The application chart provided to us from Speed Bleeder has not been updated, many models are not included. As a rule most modern bikes with Nissing Calipers use SB8125L and those using Tokico Calipers use SB7100S, this will cover most sportbike applications.

Speed Bleeder Motorcycle Application Chart
- Available in OEM material as well as Stainless Steel Upgrade
- Stainless steel spring
- Stainless steel ball
- Brass retainer
- The threads are roll formed. This process results in a stronger and smoother thread than one that is cut.
- The chamber for the ball and spring is precision reamed and the seat for the stainless steel ball is machined to exacting tolerances.
- Zinc chromate plating withstands a 30 hour salt spray. Other plating with higher salt spray results is also available.
- Patented thread sealing system seals the threads when the bleeding operation is performed, preventing air from being sucked back into the system.
- The pre-applied thread sealant also displaces air and moisture during thread engagement preventing rust...which usually results in rounded off corners on the hex or busted off bleeder screws making it necessary to replace the caliper or brake cylinder. The application of thread sealant thus makes it easy to loosen or remove the bleeder screw at any time.

speed bleeder
I am having a lot of trouble bleeding the brakes on my 1999 zx9r. Never had a great high firm lever. After rebuilding the calipers, steel brake hoses, ebc epfa pads, and a new brembo master cylinder, i still can't get the lever stiff and erect like my other bikes. I have a pressure bleeder and still some air. I put these bleeders on and it didn't completely solve my problem but it helped.

Speed Bleeders
These are a must when for all calipers & master cylinders! Must sure you check size of the oem bleeder valve to match up to the speed bleeder chart before you go on an ordering blitz, ask me how I know. Thank you Sportbiketrackgear.com.

Simply awesome
Checked these out before but wasn't really sold on the value of them. Got bored and needed to do a fluid flush anyways so I figured why not. Won't own another bike without them. On a double-caliper setup, you can do a full flush in less than 2 minutes, by yourself. When you own multiple bikes like I do something like this is a must, especially if you track them and are doing 3 fluid flushes a month on 4 bikes.

Speed bleeder
10/10 I was hesitate at first about having a check valve in my brake system. But after doing the flush and bleed I’m extremely pleased with the ease of the job now. The thread locker on the screw worked as it should. 0 leaks and has turned bleeding from a 10 min job to a 2 min job. It is holding up to a handbrake caliper stunt riding

Saved me
Not sure what the problem was, but I could not get a good feel out of my front brakes on a 2005 GSXR 750. There was some trapped air that just would not come out doing to cracking the bleeder and pumping, while these bleeders took care of job for me. Also great for just swapping fluid after a few races,

Must have if you do do track days or services the bike frequently
Been using these speed bleeders on all types of bikes I’ve owned/ worked on over the last few years Have yet to have this product fail. MAKE SURE YOU GET FLUID IN THE SYSTEM BEFORE TRYING TO USE THESE SPEED BLEEDERS. 10 out of 10

No Brainer
For the sale price of these things and how much convenience and ease they add to a simple maintenance job on your motorcycle, everyone should buy a set for their bike. Remove old bleeder, install Speed Bleeder and all you have to do is crack it open at the caliper and pump the lever. No more holding it open, fighting with you brake fluid drain hose, pumping the lever, trying to watch for bubbles, forgetting to hold the lever fully compressed before you tighten the bleeder. It's now literally 3 steps: crack open the speed bleeder, stand comfortably near the lever while you're pumping and watch for bubbles. It'll be the fast brake bleed you've ever done.

Speed Bleeder
Got the speed bleeder super fast. Less than a week from the other side of the world. The bleeders are awesome, less work to bleed. Especially good when you need that little bit of bleeding while on trackdays.
