Review on M5 x 0.8 Micro Bleeder - Motion Pro 11-0095 Silver: Effortless Air Bleeding Solution by Simo Ramsey

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Without production, the product does not fit! Buyer Warning.

First of all, everything is fine. Despite all the confidence of the seller and other sellers from other sites regarding the product suitable for the Honda CRF105R. They do not fit. After several attempts to screw the bleeder in properly, I found that the problem wasn't the depth of the thread or the correct threading for the front fork. The problem is the thickness of the thickest part of the pump itself. For the OEM muffler bolt, a U-shape or half-circle is cut into the top of the fork. The product does not fit here. The aftermarket bleeder fits into the U-notch and tries to cross the threads, and the bleeder itself begins to cut into the U-shaped portion of the plug. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT SUITABLE AS AN OEM AIR BREAKER. MANUFACTURING -- (*GRINDING* THE U-SHAPED TO A LARGE DIAMETER) FOR PRODUCT CONFORMITY ONLY. Then after trying to get it to work, thinking it was just a tight tolerance, I started tightening it more and more, thinking it would eventually seat with little friction. I was wrong. I make my money from cars. I know the tricks of the trade. I work on my own bike every week. Needless to say I was very disappointed with it. No one wants to grind their bike to fit a $13 bleeder bolt. MY BIKE: 2007 Honda CRF150R.
