     I went to both Brisy dealers to buy a couple of brake bleeder nipples, as rear one is slightly rounded, ect. Bought the newies and their not the same and dont fit. Took em back, right part no. Checked current on the floor bikes, some models use same bleeder screw as my o8 softail, so their still in use. Dealer said, Harley is aware of problem, Still no correct bleeder screws. WTF, ring, ring some more, ring again, still no answer or supply of correct bleeder screws. ( the 08 uses a squat screw that screws into the caliper recessed drilling) How can something so simple go on and on and not simply be solved, Too bad if you couldnt ride bike cause your waiting on a bleeder screw.  Sense of humour is being tested. Must be a 2013 thing.
