Get a brake bleeder kit for sure. RockAuto is a good place to get decent parts for a fair price.
Fill a syringe with brake fluid, then use a tube and nipple (the black things in the pic, don't know the name) on the end. Open up the reservoir and get out as much fluid as possible, then use the syringe to slowly push fluid into the system, you should see lots of bubbles in the reservoir as the air escapes.
I had a hell of a time getting my DRZ's front system to bleed after accidentally introducing air, even took it to a shop and they couldn't get the brake feel back. Tried all sorts of wacky things including elevating the reservoir, putting a zip tie on the lever, etc. Did it this way and it worked perfectly the first time.
