Yes, Maybe :) Leave the cover off and put the mityvac on. Pump it a few times and crack open the bleed valve. After a couple of seconds I then closed the bleed valve and add fluid before the master cylinder runs dry. (If you let it run dry air will get in the line again and you will be back to where you started.) My fluid was old so I kept going through this procedure until I knew that I had all the old fluid out and was full of the new. On mine I could actually see a color change between the old and the new. Just for my own piece of mind I did the normal bleed procedure using the brake lever but leaving the mighty vac on and pumped up. I haven't ridden the bike yet but I can tell that I am going to have some serious brakes now. Good luck.
