Breva 1100: Pipe with valve under seat next to battery????
« on: July 25, 2020, 05:30:03 PM »




So, what on earth is this people?!
It is a pipe clipped next to the battery. Looks like it may pump something up via valve on end??
Any help appreciated!

Flux capacitor priming unit, otherwise know as the NOS injection port... ;-) 

Kidding............

That is the bleeder for the hydraulic clutch.

Isn't it the clutch or Brake bleed?
I'm sure my Griso has that as well.

Thanks all, that makes sense... couldn't see it in the manual!

I will leave well alone as clutch seems ok
