j3gq has asked whether the brake fluid in ABS systems on post 2013 models needs to be changed differently to ensure bleeding removes all air from the ABS modulator.
Others have asserted that bleeding the brakes normally will remove air from all parts of the ABS braking system.
j3gq has questioned whether people are certain that is actually the case.
Are they?
Who ya' gonna believe?
The question has been raised on other forums:

I didn't post either of those because they favor my viewpoint--I have no idea. Whenever faced with a tech issue, I read all I can on the net, my service manuel...and then I confirm anything I've learned with my trustworthy mechanic brother who knows how to balance money-time-what-can-you-live-with-what-not-to-ignore. If I'm still not sure, I take the issue to an independent mc shop I trust and let it go.
