I'm guessing there is other posts on this subject..I'm in the market for a set of fork bleeders...Is there one brand that is better for any reason aside of maybe they're Orange..?? I'm wondering if one set might be shorter..and not interfere with maybe the handlebars or.??? What's your opinions boys n girls..

I wouldn't bother mate.
You have to get it on a stand ( or at least on a big lean on the kick stand).
Save your pennies and splash on something better

Went with the Moose variaty for like 35 bucks,orange caps,,low profile,the KTM ones have a rubber button that will crack over time,,,as for them working,,, I've found just just sitting they will build pressure with varieng air temps,,,after every ride they definatly do,,,,installed some on my buddies SMR,, but his fork seals were knackered from never having done this ,,,after a ride they would let off pressure ,,but let it sit afterwards and the pressure would presumably be lost through the seals,,,,IMO they work,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Sorry, let me clarify... They work and I bleed my forks regularly ( bike gets tied to a trailer a bit as well as hard road use)
I just don't find the screw arrangement that annoying.

I've got the orange anodised ones on at present but have a set of KTM ones with the black rubber tops. Going to fit them tomorrow - because they are black and I'm not too keen on orange anodised stuff!

i cant believe the pressure makes any diff. in all my years of riding ive never blown a set of fork seals, my SD is coming up on 30k and still has its original seals.
when you think about it, any time your front end compresses whatever air is in them is pressurized.if your seals couldnt take it youd be replacing them on every ride!

The bleeders are not to protect the seals ...but to release air pressure so the the forks do not 'pump up'
