Injecting fluid into brake bleeders...anyone use this method to bleed brakes?
I came across this thread (https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1656908), where the guy was installing stainless brake lines on his bike. Anyways, in the bleeding process he used a baster/"injector" to push fluid through the bleeder, in order to force the air out through the master cylinder. Supposedly it should make for better bleeds because air has the tendency to rise.
The procedure for flushing your brakes would take a bit longer with this method, but what do you guys think?

would make sense for a bike as it doesn't hold as much fluid as a car, but i figure if you wanted to do this for a car you would need a bigger baster/syringe to do it right.
Bleeding brakes isn't that hard if you have a cheap bleeder kit

I've heard that using the vacuum method will suck air past the hose where it connects to the bleeder, is that true?

yea it will if the hose isnt the right size...but it works still and just keep pumping until the fluid has 0 air in it...only way to do it one man'd
