ZILLAKILLA Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I have my bike away for the winter but the last couple rides I seemed to have hardly any front brakes. I tried bleeding them again and the rotors are in good shape and the brakes are prob 50%. The thing I did with the back brakes when I had similar issue was take the caliper off and pump the caliper all the way out and all the way in a few times and lubricated it well and it seemed to work fine. I guess the haven't been out that far before or the got corroded a little bit. Any other ideas besides what I said I did with the backs will help. Also stupid question but what is the black line that goes to the front brake handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZILLAKILLA Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Forgot to add when the front brakes worked before it was as soon as you pull the lever it would engage. Now its 3/4 of the way back before it engages and nowhere near the grab that it used to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
special06shee Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Probably time to rebuild master cylinder. Black wires are for brake light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
