How many Speed Bleeders required?

Hi, I'm fitting Goodridge Speed Bleeders to my BMW K75. This bike has dual 4-pot non-ABS brakes front and a single 2-pot non-ABS caliper rear. Will this setup require one Speed Bleeder nipple per caliper to work properly (3 total) or can I get away with a single Speed Bleeder per side (one front, one rear; 2 total). Reason I ask is because the product is sold in pairs and I need to order the right quantity.
 
How many required --> ZERO. Speed bleeders are really not required unless you will be bleeding your brakes often.

What year is that K75? Does it have a radial front master cylinder or a conventional ?
 
Usually there is only one bleeder on each caliper so 3 total
 
some have 2

Well, first I satisfy desire, not requirement, as with any aftermarket farkle. Then, it's figuring out the requirements for the application.

It's in my signature -- 1987. The front master is conventional.
