Bleeder tool for bleeding brake fluid?

[alpo]

A "poor man's" option is to zip-tie the lever/pedal down overnight. It doesn't have to be really tight, just enough to open the system like when you're applying the brakes. With the system open any air will naturally flow up into the reservoir.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the bleeder tool for changing brake fluid? I had heard this mini bleeder is pretty easy to use, but Im not sure if 8mm size will fit well: https://www.amazon.com/Motion-Pro-08-0482-Mini-Bleeder/dp/B0077QSGFG

I also see bleeder screws but Im not sure if those will work. Any recommendations?

I bought a pair of stahlbus Bleeder Valves, for the front and rear. They make them for the gs500.
Very useful, just pump pump pump and job is done. None of this faffing about with a 10mm spanner while your're pumping the brakes.

Got mine on ebay, not sure where you get them now as I cannot see any on there.

Also bought a vacuum hand pump like this.

Works really well.

That looks like the way to go. So you pump out all the old fluid with the ebay pump (from the top reservoir), then pour the new fluid in, seal the top off reservoir off, then purge the air through the bottom end with the stalhbus screw?

I believe I found the screw for sale here in America: https://www.stahlbus-us.com/stahlbus-bleeder-valve-m7x10x16mm-steel.html

This website identified the size of the screw (M7X1.0X16 MM), I suppose its the same size for both wheels: https://www.louis.eu/artikel/stahlbus-brake-bleeding-skrew-with-check-valve-fuer-suzuki-gs-500-f/10002856?filter_bike_id=1171&filter_article_number=10002855

I flush it from the valve using the vacuum gun IIRC. Don't think it would doing it from the reservoir.

So you drain the old fluid with the vacuum pump, then after pouring the new fluid in, pump the air bubbles out with the bleeder valve? Or can you do both with either one? sorry Im vvery confused lol
