Started to bleed the front and when I pulled on the lever (to pump brakes)brake fluid actually squirted up and out of the reservoir. There was still fluid in the reservoir, so I topped it off and put back the lid to rethink this.

I have a gs850 1982. Bled the back brake and things went great.

Thanx, I will move on. Can't believe how fast the answers come. Did I buy the right bike or what.

Go easy on the lever at first.
