I probably would have used a large syringe and pushed fluid from the top out, but seems sucking it in with a vacuum pump would do the same trick!

Why did you go with the DOT 5, any particular reason? It is better for the SS lines?
Here is a link to the pros and cons of DOT3 and 5. http://www.motorcycleproject.com/mot...rakefluid.html I tried to copy it here, but couldn't. The main reason is it will not harm paint. If my MC ever leaked it wouldn't ruin the paint on the firewall and frame.
