I've read the other replies. If it is air in the M/C then you either
have to pull the M/C and bench bleed it OR go ahead and take it to a
shop that has a motorized vacuum bleeder and let them do it.
You may also be able to clear it by buying and using a Motive Power Bleeder:

That's a nice tool to have available anyway. Makes bleeding brakes EASY!
Gravity bleeding won't get a bubble sitting at the top of the M/C.
