Rear Brake has no effect on 08 GenII

[woodcycl]

Front & Rear Brake Bleed + Clutch Bleed = $235

This was to hopefully obtain rear brake use

Rear Master Cylinder assembly ($156 from dealer) + 1hr labor to include bleeding again = $250

Both of these include shop materials + brake fluid of course.

Yes, not happy with the total cost ... believe me!!! But, I have brakes and won't need any bleeding for 2yrs (given the mileage I'll likely ride)

And, Yes, I did obtain a YES, you WILL have brakes after the Rear Master Cylinder is installed and brakes bled.

$235 to bleed brakes and clutch? A trained monkey could do it in less than an hour. Holy crap!!

It's a good thing I'm a trained monkey, under $10.00 for fluid and under 1 hour including cleanup.

as for me,i tried the bleeding,still softer than grannys tities,heading off to Malcolm smith in riverside to justify my yes plan.

"And, Yes, I did obtain a YES, you WILL have brakes after the Rear Master Cylinder is installed and brakes bled."

I'm not following. Did you have YES before or after you paid for the new rear cylinder. If before, why did it not cover repairs?
