Interesting info on the order of bleeding the two systems both front and read. Much appreciated. I think you didn't show an important step: filling the reservoirs before bleeding the lines and it is my experience with my FLH's that it's very easy to introduce air into the lines because the lines take almost all of the reservoir so they need to be topped up during the bleed. Also, a picky point but you don't pump up pressure with the hand pump, you build up vacuum
I think you forgot to show and tell adding fluid to the rear reservoir as you bleed the rear brakes and the importance of keeping it topped off so it doesn't get so low/empty and then suck air into the system thus defeating the whole process. I also would have liked to have seen and properly told on rear wheel torque in foot pounds and tell everyone that the lug nuts need to be rechecked for torque with in the first 50 to 100 miles after rear wheel removal!!!..
Not sure, if it has ABS it's a little different. If it doesn't then the procedure would be the same. I don't have a freewheeler manual to look that up.
I'm new to Tri Glides and your videos have really helped me do the much needed maintenance on my 2016 Tri Glide :) I've done the DK comfort ride shock support lifts, and find it a pain in backside to lift the machine just so, and place jack supports under it. Short of buying a Handy Lift BOB 1800 lift deck with trike support wings, is there a hydraulic jack system you can roll/slide under the trike and lift it up evenly?
Wish I'd seen your video before I messed up my 2015 tri brakes. Bledd them wrong..
Thank you, now try to start over

Would love to see a video on changing the rear brake pads!
When that time comes, there will be one.

Is this the same for the freewheeler

Thank you for sharing That helps a lot
Sir. Did you have sir coming from the rear calipers even tho you closed the bleeder valve?
You should never have air in the lines. So no if I understand your question.

Check out my video on removing the body on the Tri Glide. I use a car jack to lift it up and you can see where in the video.
