Just got my Motion Pro Brake Bleeder tool (basically just a one way check valve) and tried to bleed my front brake. I could not seem to get the bubbles out...I am wondering if maybe there is a leak in my line somewhere? Thing is there are no visible leaks at all so I am kind of lost as to why I can't seem to flush those bubbles out. Maybe the line isn't sealed well enough around the nipple?
Oh and it is a 2009 CRF450R.
Any help?

Remove master cylinder cap.
Suck out a little fluid so it's about half full at most.
Have a friend watch at the master cylinder, while you grab the caliper with both hands.
Put both thumbs on the caliper and your fingers on the rotor, and squeeze it so the pistons compress back into the caliper.
This will push all the fluid upward in the system.
Most likely, your friend will see some bubbles pop up. Pump the front brake and repeat this a couple times, then proceed with normal bleeding process.
