note:
I started with keakars method first

then tried traditional below

they were well bled...so much so, that nice clean brake fluid was coming at at all bleeding points and brake lever or foot pedal still wont get firm...just wasting brake fluid at this point

something else is going on

I just don't have the time or will power to chase down everything on all 3 and deal with everyday things at the same time...I'm getting to old for this crap



I'd rather just pay someone else to deal with it

if my method didnt work then its your master cylinder needs new seals inside, when the seals go they wont build pressure.

i been working on bikes for over 40 years and i wouldnt want to try installing a rebuild kit on a master cylinder, they are usually ate up inside with corrosion so i just buy a new one for it or if its really expensive, a working used one from somebody selling used parts

i agree the other bikes need help, what you describe sounds like they need a lot of this that and the other and its time consuming to do all that so if you got the money let the shop do it.

i would still suggest you hold off on the brake issue bike and try replacing the master cylinder first, then bring it to the shop if that doesnt solve the issue
