Brakes
Filed Jun 19, 2019

THE FRONT BRAKE EXHIBITS A VERY LONG FIRST PULL TO ENGAGE, SUBSEQUENT PULLS ARE SHORT BRIEFLY, THEN THE LONG PULL RETURNS AFTER A FEW MINUTES. THIS CAUSES THE FRONT BRAKE TO ENGAGE AT GREATLY VARYING LEVELS OF LEVER PULL AND EFFORT DURING A TYPICAL RIDE. THE BRAKE IS ALSO VERY SPONGY AND VAGUE. THE DEALER HAS MADE 5 ATTEMPTS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE WHICH INCLUDES SEVERAL BRAKE BLEEDS, REPLACEMENT OF THE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE CHANGE TO DIFFERENT TYPE OF BRAKE FLUID, ALL TO NO AVAIL.
