Thanks for all the feed back👨‍💻. I ended up calling my mechanic as i only bought the bike off him a few weeks back. He apologized🙏for the hassle and i will call over to collect the bike tomorrow. 🏍💨 

Thanks for the reply. I will start fresh on friday with manual pump. Might tell mechanic to hold off. Its just getting the time to do it. I might invest in speed bleeders? Is this right ? EBay seller quote:

Simply 1/4 turn open and then click on the hand or foot brake lever. Due to the vacuum pressure the ball valve and excess opens

Air can escape. As a rule, is the braking systems completely deflated after only five times the pump and the bleeder valve can be completely closed again

Not sure whats going on with this... I have just focused on bleeding the front right centre nipple with a vacuum pump and just get a little fluid and loads of bubbles  Doing this over the last few days for about 5 mins each time but its the same every day. Checked the rear master and looks like no brake fluid has gone down. Also used manual way with 10 brake pumps, open nipple press brake and close before slowly releasing rear brake pedal  I have phoned my mechanic and he will collect bike this friday to service the brakes as i do not want to start pulling the bike apart. 🤔 When its running properly, i will start upgrading it. Just want to get it 100% and enjoy it as i only bought it a few weeks ago.

Got the factory service manual? You can download from this site.

Thanks, i found that and will read it over the next while. Think i should try and clean system before replacing anything. I was looking at HEL brake lines, wavy discs and short levers. One step at a time.

Hello all, I was wondering if there is a step by step guide on disassembling and cleaning calipers on gen 5 vfr800fi?
