I bought one of these - http://www.motiveproducts.com/ - a few years back and use it on all my vehicles. Very nice product and makes bleeding (or fully purging) brakes no problem at all.

Glad to hear the endorsement for the Motive bleeder :) ... I've been considering buying one ... Which model do you have? ... looks like they have several choices ...

I got the "Pro" version - model #0250. Basically, the pump is the same on all of them except the Magnum, which is larger. The different "models" depend on what adapters you get with the kit. For me, the Pro gave me the adapters for my Chevy, Toyota, Saab, and Mustang. Seemed easier to just get that than try to jury-rig things or end up buying the individual adapters later. Haven't tried it on the motorcycle yet, but may see what it would take the next time it needs bled.
