SpeedBleeders: What Size? 1 Year, 11 Months ago  
I have an 06 Midnight Silverado. I want to change my brake fluid and install SpeedBleeders at the same time.

The SpeedBleeder web-site shows the SB8125L for the front and rear brakes. For those who have installed SpeedBleeders on their Road*, is that the correct size?

Thanks.

They must have updated their application chart since I contacted them. They didn't list 04-up Roadies before so I took a chance and ordered them using the 99-03 sizes and the front was too small. I'm not at home to look but I think SB8125L is right. You may want to email them to verify it.

Yep. They currently show:
Front Rear
Road Star Standard 99-03 SB7100S SB8125L
Road Star 05 SB8125L SB8125L

So it looks like the SB8125L are the right ones for the front/rear.

Thanks!
