Thanks for any guidance 👍

1 litre to be safe.
I usually suck the content out the tank with a syringe. You will need to pull a plastic thing out with needle plyers.
Then put clean in the tank, and bleed the brakes
DOT 4 Class 6 is specified.

About 1.5 - 2 liters or so. I guess there are different ways of doing it (pedal vs vacuum). I’ve bought 5 liter canisters of fluid and always end up with a lot over. On the other hand the fluid isn’t terribly expensive either.
