Thanks, PB. Was just concerned that removing ALL the fluid from reservoir would increase the chance for air getting into the system.

Lexus flushes brake fluid every 30K miles. Mine is scheduled for the second flush next month when it is in for some service.

Meanwhile my CB is due for the 2 year flush. I need to get on that.

Never pump when reservoir is empty....if any air by any chance = will get purged during procedure as indicated.

If that happens, just re-prime the system with fresh fluid. I would not be the end of the world. Keep enough handy.

Does anyone have a photo of where the bleeder/clutch slave cylinder is? The write up sais to remove the shink linkage from the plastic side cover but the shift linkage goes to metal cover and the plastic cover is up near the tank? I think im just reading something wrong but photos or videos make it alot easier for me to visualize.

That is not the plastic cover you seek. This video by Terrence O'Keeffe is fun to watch once you get past the painful music and intro. Should answer all your questions.
