Speed bleeders?

Can I get speed bleeders (Speedi-bleeders?-not sure what they are called) for the front calipers on my '82 KZ750H3? And if so, what thread size am I looking for? Thanks!

A speed bleeder for your bike is listed on ebbaayy.
You can probably get them elsewhere. I tried CycleGear, but they don't sell them. Russell, Goodridge & others probably make them. Z1Enterprises.com lists a stock brake bleeder - the size listed is 7mm w 1.0 pitch. I'd guess yours is the same size.

Here's one from the Summit Racing website: Russell Performance 639570 - Russell Speed Bleeders . I don't know if it's correct for your application, since I'm not 100% sure of the needed size & length.

No problem, just go to www.speedbleeder.com and use the ones recommended for older Kawasaki's (SB7100S I think). I've got them on all of my 82 750's calipers (front and back).

I'm sold on them.

Neato. Thanks... I just started seriously looking into getting a speed bleeder this week. The one listed on ebbaayy has the same part number as the one from SpeedBleeder.com. Kawasaki Speed Bleeder KZ KZ650 KZ750 KZ900 KZ1000 - SB7100S
