Can anyone with a Motortrike IRS tell me what size of wrench I need to bleed the brakes. Have not done any brake work on this trike except according to the installer, I was told the front pads were worn and should be replaced. They had lotsa life left but thought lets start fresh.:Coffee:
Any way the pedal seems spongeey and after two pumps I notice a difference so thought I would bleed them to make sure.
There appears to be 3 bleed screws per side me thinks I want to start with the upper one first then make my way down. Let me know your thoughts on this as I would like to make sure I have max breaking power.ThumbUp

My brakes were soft too until I totally bled the system. It was time to replace all the brake fluid anyway so I just did the entire job. Made a HUGE difference.
