The purple seems to fade somewhat over time for me, perhaps because there's
still some DOT 3 lurking in the system.  See Nelson Riedel's test report at
www.buckeyetriumphs.org/technical/Brakes/Fluid/Fluid.htm
for an explanation (although this isn't the first time I've heard of this).

If that link doesn't work, you'll have to either cut and paste it into the
address line of your browser, or go to
http://www.buckeyetriumphs.org
and click on the 'Technical' link on the left.  Scroll down the page to
'Selecting Brake Fluid'.
