Okay, people are going to say I'm crazy but... Take the caliper back off the bike and elevate it above the master cylinder. Statue of Liberty style! Open the bleeder and pump until fluid comes out in a decent flow. Re-install the caliper and do the same to the other side. Of course, make sure you open and close the bleeder with it elevated and always keep the res. full. Now bleed the brakes until you get decent pressure and no big bubbles. Pump the brake lever until you get max pressure and hold it in and tape/zip tie the lever back. Tap the lines a few times with a wrench or some thing and go have a sandwich, watch tv, go to bed, whatever. When you get back the brakes should be good (give it 4-6 hours).If not pump them up again and tie them back and leave them for a few more hours. Rock hard brakes and stoppies for all!
