Well aparantly Gary is a believer now. I had Jimmy bleed my brakes
previously which provided marginal improvement. I didn't bleed the brakes
after elevating the reservoir. I just took it out and rode it. After a
couple of stops the improvement worked.
Still it's a whole lot cheaper than a $250 master cylinder.
