    What kind of bike?

    Did you use a Mityvac or something similar or just let it flow out? Could be air trapped inside.

    i have a 95 kawasaki gpz 1100. all I tried to do was attach a small hose to the bleeder valve, and open and close the valve and pull the clutch. this is the first time i'm trying to do it, and not sure where i'm going wrong.

    Crack the banjo at the master, pull clutch in, hold, tighten banjo, let clutch out. Repeat until you get a constant stream of fluid coming out of the banjo fittings when cracked.

    Other option is to use a syringe attached to the bleeder on the slave and push fluid back up into the master. Either way you need to get the bubbles out using the method I mentioned above.
