Hi All,
I am upgrading the front end of my bike (on a budget, all eBay stuff).
I have come to the last bit, the brakes.
After getting everything bled, the lever caused the brakes to work (all the pistons moved); however I could pull the lever all the way in and it didn't seem to get any harder.
I stripped the MC, both seals in good condition; I couldn't see any issues. I put it all back together and gave it a test on the bench (covering the brake line hole with my finger and trying to create a bit of pressure). This bench test resulted in no pressure build up and the fluid squirting back up into the resevoir.
Has anybody experienced this before? Will an MC rebuild kit do the job?
The upgraded front end is all from a 2008 GSXR750.
