Fitting mid foot controls

Reggie said:

I will be fitting mid-foot controls to my GT possibly next week if they come on time.

The only slight concern that I have is that the new flexible pipe from the master cylinder bolts onto a fixed pipe near the oil tank that goes directly upwards and under the fuel tank, and as I cannot clamp the fixed pipe, I expect to lose some brake fluid and get air into the brake system.

Has anybody done this job and bled the rear brake system the traditional way without having to revert to activating the ABS pump with Dealertool or similar?

Although I expect the rest to be quite straightforward, are there any other peculiarities to know?

Thanks.

I did it last year and bleed them the traditional way but did it 3 times to get it to the way it was ahead of time. Wasn't perfect.
Also mounted forward pegs with bracket I already had. Used a long foot peg on one side and short one on the other. The front pegs are close. They don't interfere with braking or shifting for me. I was surprised at that. I can put my heal on highway peg or put my foot on mid and front peg at same time. ( size 11.5)
