Pick up a cheap syringe. I did the same the other day just for bleeding the brakes. Triumph also have an 'interesting' setup on what are otherwise excellent brakes.

That doesn't really work either, I tried that when I changed the m/c last time

Re: MOT failure
 

i had the same trouble bleeding the rear brake on my gasgas tx 280 had to lift the back end caliper higher than the resevoir then bleed it from the caliper via a syringe took me a few hrs of playing about and fiddlling but got there in the end ,i was told to do it this way by a gasgas main dealer mechanic !!!!!

Re: MOT failure
 

Well i've spent about an hour bleeding the rear brake (the Aprillia way) and adjusting the push rod thing on the pedal there is a slight improvement but it's still pretty dire.
The pads look a bit worse for wear so going to through new pads and a new disc at it next week and see how that goes.
