Having a brake issue on my grizzly (personal bike) I replaced all pads, but think booster may be bad now(spongy brake pull)


thats because you dont know how to bleed brakes on an atv/motorcycle

it doesnt work like on your car.

make sure reservoir is full, then pull in brake lever and tie it off that way, then leave it overnight, it takes a good 12+ hours for the tiny air bubbles to float up and escape into reservoir, that can only happen while its pulled in like pressing on the brakes, so thats why it doesnt bleed normally like with cars, by next morning you will see all air has been purged and brakes will work like new again

the way bike master cylinder work doesnt allow you to get all the air out by pumping it and cracking the bleed screw, it just doesnt get all the air out.

do it like i said, then tell us how its now fixed, and then i will send you a bill in the mail for fixing your brakes
