Rear caliper bleeding

I get a good few 748/916 variants where the back brake doesn't work. This can be due to dodgy rear master cylinder as they can fail, however it is usually that the brake just needs re-bleeding. To do this though the caliper has to be taken off its mounting and placed on top of the disc. If you don't do this it is virtually impossible to get all the air out. It is obviously the same with any bike where the bleed nipple is at the lowest point, Multistrada's some SS's and some Monsters.
