Russell Speed Bleeders

[nathanmaus]

Hey guys,

I'm looking at getting the Russell Speed Bleeder valves, and I'm not home for a few days. I ride a 1980 GS1000 and I'm in need of the size and thread pitch of the stock bleeder valves. I tried calling Suzuki and they couldn't help me.

Thanks,
Nathan

7mm for an 8 valve GS750. Not sure of the pitch, but a random M7 screw from the bike fit the bleeder hole.

They are 7mm x 1.0. I installed these recently: http://www.z1enterprises.com/ItemDet...&item=GRSB7100

They come with some thick gray/black sealing gunk on the threads which make it screw in rather hard. I was concerned about that so I took a needle and scraped most of it off prior to putting them in the caliper. "Bleeders" aren't necessary but they really do work very well.
