When I changed out the lines on my 06 Speedy I bled them the old fashioned way with spanner and a small bottle of fluid. I started with the one on the far side. I opened the nut while squeezing the lever down. Then shutting off the nut and releasing the lever.
That's the way I do it if I get a stubborn one I run a piece of clear tubing from the bleeder nipple into a CLEAN glass jarwith more clean fluid in it. With the tubing under the level of fluid in the jar open the bleeder and pump the lever. You will see any air bubble up in the jar. The end of the tubing being under the fluid in the jar prevents sucking any air back in the system. Just in case there was any doubt, the tubing has to be a tight fit on the bleeder nipple.
On a side note,l those speed bleeders are great as long as you have enough pressure to open them. If you are getting little or no pressure on the lever the speed bleeder won't open and is thus useless and you could pump that lever forever with no effect.I have seen it and also remember a couple members here that had that problem.
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
