Hello All! Here is my first post for my "new to me" fjr. Previously a member of the Honda ST Clan. I am having a problem with my rear brake. Most urgently, I seem to be unable to bleed the line. A little history: had a problem with heat and lost the rear all together on a ride, I think from the brakes dragging. Anyway the rear master seemed unusually hard to pump fluid thru to bleed so I began to check the hoses one at a time starting from the master. master pumps fluid easily, hose from the master to the ABS pumps fluid easily, but after that I get nothing. more specifically: when I disconnect the hose that feeds the ABS (at the ABS) and seal it off with my fingers, I can feel the pressure in the line when I press the pedal, also if I release the seal and press the pedal down then seal and release the pedal, I get a good draw from the reservoir (just like bleeding). but then I reconnect that hose and disconnect the hose leaving the ABS, I would expect the same results by sealing off the exit with my finger, but nothing. No pressure when I press or pump the pedal. Cannot get any draw from the reservoir at or past that point. same results at the caliper. also cannot bleed with a vacuum pump at the caliper. Any Ideas? (04 FJR with ABS)
