i finally got my 1990 running decent so i was riding up and down my streets and i started to have problems with my rear brake. most of the time it would stop fine but a few times with the pedal/lever all the way down the brake would do nothing at all :icon_eek: fluid level looks good and don't see any leaks. what should i look for? i tried rolling it in the driveway to look but then the brakes worked everytime.

Have you bled the system to make sure there's no air in the system?
Some say that he submitted a $20000 expense claim for some gravel

And that if he'd write a letter of condolance he would at least spell your name right.

Well bleeding is the first thing to do to eliminate it.

Check for any leaking fluid too especially around the MC.

i bled the rear brake and rode it up and down my streets and it seems to be good. but then again it was good before and out of nowhere it would randomly not work. hope its solved but it will take a little riding before i really trust it.
