 While riding my new motorcycle i could not stop at a stop sign using my rear brake- i had a soft brake. even depressing the rear brake pedal to it's fullest there was no braking at all. my dealer repaired the condition by changing the master cylinder and brake fluid and also following the factory bulletin on bleeding the rear brakes correctly. after three more rides again the rear brake failed to work - this time at freeway speeds ! in reading the on-line forums and talking to other owners of the same model it seems to be an issue. *tr
