    Haven't replaced the Clutch fluid before (always got it done while it was in the shop for other stuff) where is the bleed valve? Do I need any unusual tools ?I can't seem to find any details online, and I don't want to head home tonight, then find I need a tool I haven't got.Thanks

    The bleed valve comes out at the right side of the bike. It's inside that black foam cylinder. You'll need to remove the screw that's in there and replace it with a suitable bleed nipple. I  am not sure if one from a brake caliper would fit.

    Thanks. I've been wondering what that foam thing was….Have also located some Haynes Manual advice, not easy to find, why don't they use page numbers? Located the useful section under 'bleeding',(2-57) or should that be 'Bleeding Awkward'?Will speak to Neil tomorrow to fix me up with the valve.
