Bleeding clutch

[Terry Dymond]

Just bled my clutch: tank off, mc off, cable ties cut and the whole lot held up so that all the air makes it's way to the resevoir. Once all the air is expelled, re-assembleand recommend that you hold the lever in and at the same time open the bleed nipple, this will allow the clutch springs to push the slave piston back, thus pushing any water or crud behind the piston out. Repeat a couple of times whilst monitoring the fluid level in the resevoir.
Should be all good after that.

Can some tell me what the original thread on the clutch bleed nipple is? That way I can pre buy a new one.
