1. Rear works O.K.? what does that mean - properly or just adequate, you should be able to lock the back tyre easily? A mate bought his kit (just two tubes and a small bottle with one-way valve) allows you to just keep pumping the lever after releasing the nipple just once. Best result I've got on the front. Rear are easier & quicker to bleed.
2. Is there any leakage at all at the lever end. I had to replace the reservoir piston on a BMW, the indication was only the smallest amount of escaping fluid.

- November 11, 2017, 21:08:47 PMBeen working on the drifter a little at a time..being on SS does not leave much room for anything..I try the best with what I got!
Replaced starter relay,repaired several broken wires and got the motor up and running..installed new battery,replaced all turn signals
and all lights work and the electrical seems to be ok. Rebuilt the rear caliper/installed new brake pads..rear brakes work ok. Took it for a ride,checked out the gears..everything seems to work ok up to there. I have not the slightest Idea of what is going on with my front brakes! Rebuilt the front Calipers/new brake pads..no matter what I do..I can not get any pressure on the lever(Mush) I got so mad that I bought a complete front end brake set-up off a 02 Vulcan 1500 from a salvage yard close to me..but still.. I can Not get any front Brakes! I do not know what I'm doing wrong! It will not pass state inspection with no front brakes..so I'm stuck until I can figure out what I'm doing wrong! Any Ideas will be helpful! Thank You!
