Dont listen to napalm. Sure you'll learn about him soon.

Have you taken the caliper off the disc? As you said the piston moves.

All you have to do is get a small self bleed kit, undo the bleed nipple and ask someone to pump your brake slowly for you. Do this to all the brakes when your satisfied theres no air left in there.

Make sure you top up the tank regularly an dont let air back in the system.

imho the one man eazibleed kit is way way better than using a mate to pump the pedal.

Is it because youve got no friends? lol . Only joking.

Depends what you have to hand I suppose. The seals in the master cyl. Can be sucked backwards if you have somebody pressing the pedal.
