        Can;t give you the exact model number, but it's the cheap plastic one found at Auto Zone for about $30.

        79GS750man provided a link to one at Harbor Freight that looks better than mine. It has a metal pump, mine is plastic. I have had mine about 6 years, and it still seems to be doing fine.

          anti dive - bleeding..

          Good suggestions out here...

          Do the bleeding one side at a time starting with the anti dive and then the breaks as the anti drive bleed is higher than the break bleed

          I have moved my break nipples to auto bleed. This wayjust open and pump. There is a built in valve which restricts any air back on release...
