      Such a great feeling to do this myself in my own garage. 👍

    Thanks for the video
    I just did this on my Softail and it worked flawlessly - worth every penny!

      Does it can solve bubble issues? I mean I got some air bubbles in my brake lines when I extended them, does this tool work?

      @@jameslinbeijing This tool does the same thing as the Harley Digital Technician - it actuates the ABS module and flushes the brake fluid out of it. It's purpose is not designed to remove air from the rest of the system. If you have air bubbles, you would need to bleed your brakes just as on a non-ABS system, as long as it takes, to get all the air out. Once you have done that, you would use this tool to actuate the module. As you see in the video, it does a few cycles of this during the process. Once completed, you would again bleed the brakes so you can remove what was expelled from the ABS module. I hope this makes sense. One tip I can offer is for the front brake - use something like a zip tie to hold the brake lever closed and let it sit overnight. This keeps the valve open and allows air to rise into the master cylinder. I've done this and it works. Another tip is to tape the brake caliper with a mallet when bleeding, which helps dislodge air bubbles and get them moving with the fluid.

    I am sold. Going to purchase this tool shortly. I have 14 Limited and dealer wants $350 +tax to flush brakes. Told them they were nuts.

      Wow, that's outrageous, but I guess people pay it.

    Good to know if I ever get rid of my old 2007 Sportster.
