I just received the PDF file from Goodridge for all their brake parts they list speedbleeders SB125 AND SB125L. Has anyone ever bought these for the CB1100? Is one nipple left hand thread? It shows the clutch takes one of these numbers also.

on other forums I bring up speedbleeders and everyone tries to tell me how to bleed my brakes with out them. They are so cool I change my fluid every year in about 30 minutes. Yes they are Godsent! By my chart the same ones should fit the CB1100 also.

Is the speedbleeder for the clutch same as for brakes? I am going to order these, tired of bleeding brakes the old way.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

As I've often said, I'm a mechanical klutz, and I've never bled a brake in my like. I looked at the SpeedBleeder website and I can't understand why, if these things work, you'd argue for people to bleed brakes and clutch the old-fashioned way.

I did a search on speedbleeders and found an old thread on the subject, over 1/4 of the post were members telling the speedbleeders how to bleed the old way(s).
I bleed my work trucks brakes the same way in about 45 minutes. 4 trucks later, 16 complete brake fluid changes, and I have been using the same bleeders for years.

Ya, right, YOU bleed without them, thank you, I'll keep using speedbleaders.
I also have them on my 2000 VFR800 which has the famous (infamous) Honda combined brake system.
yes they are the same - sorry fellas i just saw this
the size for both is 8x1.25 - look at the attached pic, but bottom 3 in the center are
8125, 8125l and 8125ll
you'll see that 8125 and 8125l are only different on the "top half" the thread length and pitch are identical. you could put whatever one you want on your bike...i went with 8125l for both brake and clutch so the bleeder hose has something to grab on to.
